"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 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
"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
