Fantastic Mr. Fox was written by Roald Dahl in 1970, but its humor, charm and lessons are timeless. This is a fun read-aloud, full of surprises and lessons.
Fantastic Mr. Fox must feed his family and outsmart three bumbling farmers to do so. Mr. Fox manages to stay one step ahead of these farmers until they attempt to dig him out – while Mr. Fox narrowly escapes – his precious tail is left behind and the real adventure begins as his whole family joins in the quest to outsmart the farmers and get at their poultry. A cat and mouse game ensues and children are left guessing until the end.
Treat your students, or children, to a great read and engaging standards based lessons – before the movie, staring the voices of George Clooney, Bill Murray, Meryl Streep and a host of other celebrities, is released on November 13, 2009.
