Fox's Den

by Dee Phillips

A red fox sneaks up on an unsuspecting mouse. Then it pounces, landing on the mouse with all four of its feet. The fox grabs its prey with its jaws and heads back to its den. The fox's pups have been waiting for their meal in this safe underground burrow. Clear text and colorful photos and diagrams will engage young readers as they learn about the natural habitat, physical characteristics, diet, and behavior of foxes. Age-appropriate activities and critical-thinking questions give readers a chance to make observations and gain insights beyond the facts and figures.

Great informational book for young readers on the fox. I've been reading this to my lower elementary students this week in honor of World Wildlife Week and they've loved it. The full color photos are great and my students have loved seeing the pictures of baby fox.
