My son borrowed this book from his school library every week until I finally bought him a copy so that he would read other books. He loved all the verbal play and tongue twisters said fast. My daughter, I later discovered, truly disliked the story and how mean the fox was to Mr. Knox. I like all the word play and how much you can do with just a few words; and (spoiler?) Mr. Knox seems to win out in the end. (  ) raizel | Jan 24, 2023 |  This was certainly tough to read and at some parts a little dull, but I must say I rather enjoyed reading the poodle puddle twister part, that was quite fun (  ) spiritedstardust | Dec 29, 2022 | Seriously, miserable rhymes for an adult to read to a child. (  ) Luziadovalongo | Jul 14, 2022 | A tounge twister if I ever read one, but lots of fun. ( ) ChelseaVK | Dec 10, 2021 | Reading Level: 3-8 years; Pulitzer Prize Shakari | Oct 19, 2021 |
 As we mouth his refusals, we ourselves conform: we, readers of books aloud, have pronounced exactly the tongue-tying utterance that Knox declares himself unable, or unwilling, to say. Belongs to Publisher SeriesRandom House: Beginner Books (B-38) Is contained inHas the adaptation

With his unmistakable gift for rhyme, Dr. Seuss creates a hysterical and energetic way for beginning readers to dive into the joy of reading. This book comes with the following warning: "This is a book you READ ALOUD to find out just how smart your tongue is. The first time you read it, don't go fast! This Fox is a tricky fox. He'll try to get your tongue in trouble."--Provided by publisher. No library descriptions found. |
