Summary

"The Tale of Tommy Fox" by Arthur Scott Bailey is a children's story that shows the lively experiences of Tommy, a young fox, as he discovers the world of the forest under the watchful eye of his mother, Mrs. Fox. He meets forest friends and foes, such as Mother Grouse and Farmer Green’s dog Spot. Tommy learns how to hunt and stay safe, picking up important lessons about being clever and patient, but also learning about what happens when he is too boastful or careless.
