FROM THE BACK OF BOOK:
The funny and original stories Mrs. Fox "reads" to Freddy will surprise and delight listeners, young and old. Freddy's book contains two beloved classic tales by the Brothers Grimm: "The Fisherman and His Wife" and "The Four Clever Brothers"... but it also a double treat: two memorable 'new' stories invented by Mr. Fox, based on the same illustrations! Why are Mr. Fox's stories so different from those told by the Grimms? Can it be that Mr. Fox has 'made them up' to keep Freddy from suspecting that his father can't read? If so, let's keep his secret...
