A cute story I read as I have a friend who was really into foxes at the time, and I am pretty sure we both read this in the same year! I appreciate the fact this is an old book but it felt a bit too short and anti - climatic. I wasn't really a fan.

It's a good book to help you get out of a stump. I do wish, though, that Hazeline had ended up with someone who truly valued her and wouldn't tell her stuff like she needs to lose 20 pounds or they won't marry her.

For our fourth book review, I decided to read a book called Midnight Fox by Betsy Byars. The book is a fiction, adventure book and I chose to read it because the plot was really intriguing to me.


The book is about a boy called Tom who spends time on his uncle’s farm. He goes to the woods near the house and sees the prettiest fox he has ever seen and it has a cub! There is just one problem… his uncle is trying to hunt the fox and his cub! Tom has to try to save the fox and its cub!


I absolutely loved this book! I couldn’t stop reading it! I think anyone who loves animals and hates animal cruelty should read this book. The recommended reading age for this book is 10-14. I would rate this book an 8/10.

was noth the best but ok

I gave this book 4 stars because it is sad and a little boring.

I have to admit that I was not terribly interested in the book when I began, but I had not choice since it was a pre-selected book for a reading group I had to teach. In the very first couple of pages I decided that the main character was whiny and unbearable and could not wait to be done. I was surprised when I finished the book to realize that I had thoroughly enjoyed the read and was even slightly disappointed that it was over. I love the main character's scenarios that play in his head about past events that occurred or events that he wish would occur. I love the honesty portrayed by the character and that he could be so happy with such a simple summer. It was a refreshing read.

The girls and I loved this book. I laughed out loud multiple times. A great summer read-aloud.

I picked this up this very morning in the clearance section of Half Price Books for a dollar. The experience I felt reading it was worth much more. I don’t know if this would resonate with 10-year olds nowadays, but this is the kind of story I really enjoyed reading back then. I might as well confess that I still enjoy reading these type of stories today. Recommended.

This was a really good book! I loved it.

I wish there was a next book
Very different to your ordinary book

After reading it I now have sertan days where I feel like reading this type of book

Great young readers book. Characters that kids can relate to. Realistic storyline.

I read this book in fourth grade, and there are a few things that I still remember about it:

-the etchings in the suitcase
-the word "ravine"
-the scene where the main character (I can't even recall his name) has a dream where he discovers a new color
