Fox in Socks is a hilarious book where the irrepressible Fox in Socks teaches a baffled Mr. Knox some of the slickest, quickest tongue-twisters in town. With his unique combination of amusing stories, zany pictures, and riotous rhymes, Dr. Seuss has been delighting young children and helping them learn to read for over fifty years.
Join the fun as Fox and Knox take you through a series of rhyming challenges, introducing props like boxes and socks, and adding more items like chicks, bricks, blocks, and clocks as the complexity increases. As the Fox describes each situation with rhymes that escalate in complexity, Knox periodically complains about the tongue-twisters' difficulty.
Finally, after an extended dissertation on Tweetle Beetles who battle with paddles in a puddle inside a bottle, Knox acts on his frustration by stuffing Fox into the bottle, reciting a tongue-twister of his own. Knox then declares that the game is finished, thanking the Fox for the fun, and walks away while the beetles, a poodle, and the stunned Fox watch.
