"The red fox's superciliousness and the white fox's indefatigable happiness come through clearly. Visuals and text featuring repetition and simplicity will charm while building reading skills. A winning tale of two pals engaged in a safely silly competition." - Kirkus Reviews "Tabor does it again, with a charming addition to the much loved "Fox" series. Short sentences along with repeating words and phrases make this book a fantastic choice for shared reading between an adult and child. It's rare to find an early transitional reader with a captivating plot, humor, and illustrations that also maintains an easy reading level, but this title does all of that and more." - School Library Journal (starred review) "The sweet and sometimes silly illustrations--rendered in pencil, colored pencil, and watercolors--complement the narrative, reflecting both the subtly devious plot and story's gentle spirit." - Booklist.
