Reach for this book when your child is feeling small in a big world or needs to see that wit and confidence are more powerful than physical size. It is a wonderful choice for encouraging a child who might be facing a playground braggart or someone who tries to intimidate others with big words and fancy talk. This classic tale follows Flossie, a young girl tasked with delivering a basket of eggs, who encounters a wily, self-important fox. Instead of running away in fear, Flossie simply refuses to believe he is a fox until he can prove it, effectively turning the tables on the predator through sheer logic and steady nerves. It is a masterclass in self-assurance and critical thinking, perfect for children ages 4 to 9. Parents will appreciate the rich, rhythmic language and the way it models standing one's ground with grace and humor.
