A fun, fresh cover look for the fourth title in Chris Riddell’s excellent Ottoline series. Packed with gorgeous black-and-white illustrations throughout, Ottoline and the Purple Fox is perfect for kids aged 7+!
Ottoline and Mr Munroe love puzzles, clues and mysteries. One day, they meet an enigmatic purple fox, who offers to take them on a night-time urban safari. The fox shows them all the hidden animals of the city and Ottoline makes notes on them in her field notebook.

Who is the secretive poet, and how can Mr Monroe and Ottoline help them mend their broken heart?
Beautifully and intricately illustrated by the author, the Ottoline series is perfect for curious young readers.

I liked that in the end the purple fox got to dance with his boss.

It is a very good book and I really like the crimson vixen and the purple fox. I recommend it to people aged six to nine. It is a very good book and I really like how Chris Ridell incorporated His other book Goth Girl and the main character is called Ada!

I would love to recommend this book because I think it is very interesting. I like the part when Ottoline was about to open the bin when the purple fox appeared!

This is a bit similar to outline and the yellow cat but it’s slightly different. I like the poems a lot. The poems are really good and how they go into different pages then you have to flip pages. It’s just really nice. It’s definitely a good recommendation for other children.

This is my favourite book in the Ottoline series, so I like this book! It is also very very very very very very very hilarious! My favourite part of the book is when looked inside the store closet and there was so many boxes that you can't see anything else! One of the boxes was upside down!

This is one of my favourite books I have read by Chris Riddell, and in general. All the characters were amazing in this, so I can't choose which is my favourite, but if I had to, I would have to choose Ottoline as she is very clever and insightful. I would recommend it to anyone else.

I liked this book because the purple fox lived in a bin made out of recycling. Every thing in side was recycled stuff
