From Kirkus: "A classic scenario flips the script in this engrossing adventure."

I was all about this book....until the end. I thought it was an excellent take on a counting book but then we went from 10 to 100....and I was almost unsure how that happened.

Still, I enjoy seeing counting books that have a story to them as this one did. ( )

Note: I accessed a digital review copy of this book through Edelweiss. ( )

This book is a different kind of counting book, where a fox is on the prowl for something to eat! A tale of learning with a surprising ending, One Fox is a great read for young children. ( )

There aren't many "counting book thrillers" out there - but maybe there should be. A "famished fox" approaches a chicken coop. A moment of suspense ("9 flying feathers...10 sharp teeth") gives way to "100 angry hens" giving chase to "1 frightened fox."

Illustrations are mixed media with collage and painting. "No hens or foxes were harmed in the making of this book." Great choice for storytime. ( )
