A Fox Jumped Up One Winters Night


This little golden book is based on a song of the same name. The book was written and illustrated by Nina Barbaresi. A fox run and runs all in hopes of getting to his den before dinner. He see a barn and decides to leave a dollar in exchange for a grey goose. The farmer's wife hears and send her husband after fox. But the fox gets away pretty fast. He makes it home to his den with his wife and 10 children to have a meal like they have never had before. He and his wife sit happily and watch their children as they chew on the bones.


I personally don't see a moral, but an adaption from a song.
