""A true genius . . . Roald Dahl is my hero"" – David Walliams

Boggis is an enormously fat chicken farmer who only eats boiled chickens smothered in fat.

Bunce is a duck-and-goose farmer whose dinner gives him a beastly temper.

Bean is a turkey-and-apple farmer who only drinks gallons of strong cider.

Mr Fox is so clever that every evening he creeps down into the valley and helps himself to food from their farms – and those GHASTLY farmers can’t catch him!

Now the farmers have hatched a plan to BANG-BANG-BANG shoot Mr Fox dead! But, just when they think Mr Fox can’t possibly escape, he makes a FANTASTIC plan of his own . . .

Listen to FANTASTIC MR FOX and other Roald Dahl audiobooks read by some very famous voices, including Kate Winslet, David Walliams and Steven Fry – plus there are added squelchy sound-effects from Pinewood Studios!

Look out for new Roald Dahl apps in the App store and Google Play- including the disgusting TWIT OR MISS! and HOUSE OF TWITS inspired by the revolting Twits.

In Fantastic Mr Fox, you will learn about Boggis, Bunce and Bean trying to attack the fox family. The Foxes must survive the devastating attacks with only a small chance to live. This story is full of twist and Turns

The farmers are rich and they’re mean. I like the pictures and I like the men eat the chicken for every meal.

I like it because the fox tunnels underneath their houses. And I like how they push the floor boards up.

I liked Mr Fox the best. My favourite part was when the bad guys couldn’t catch him.

My Review of Fantastic Mr Fox by Roald Dahl • This book is fiction and my favourite character was Mr Fox because he is really clever and always has a plan. • I liked how he outsmarted the three farmers (Boggis, Bunce and Bean) who were so mean and greedy. • The story was funny and exciting, and I couldn’t wait to see what would happen next. • It also showed how important family and friends are, because Mr Fox always thought about keeping them safe. • I would definitely recommend it to my friends, because it’s quick to read and really fun!

My favorite character is Mr Fix because he is a funny character. I enjoyed the part where the foxes met the badger because of the relationship between the two friends. I would recommend it to others despite Mr Fix losing his tail!
