Fantastic Mr Fox
Boggis, Bunce and Bean are the meanest, nastiest farmers in the world – and they hate Mr Fox! He has been stealing their chickens and cider to feed his family and the hungry animals on the hill. So when Boggis, Bunce and Bean declare war on Mr Fox, they mean business! They are determined to get him. They lie in wait outside his hole each day, crouching behind trees with loaded guns. They swear that they will shoot, starve or dig him out.
But Mr Fox is a crafty, noble fox with lots of little foxlets to feed, and he isn’t going to give up that easily. With the help of his friends Rabbit and Badger, he thinks up an ingenious plan to outwit their shotguns and shovels…

This book is a great story about a fox who takes a chance with the meanest farmers in England. Boggis, Bunce, and been are the world’s foulest farmers and I love the way Roald Dahl describes the story of this amazing fox.
