Penguin Kids Level 4: Fantastic Mr Fox

Farmers Boggis, Bunce and Bean each have a farm. They are rich men, but mean. Mr Fox lives under a tree on a hill above the farms and feeds his family with chickens from Boggis’s farm, ducks from Bunce’s farm and turkeys from Bean’s farm.

Roald Dahl’s books appeal to children because his stories carry a message about right and wrong which children understand. Dahl’s writing style is playful and inventive, and includes rhyme, rhythm, repetition, nonsense words and sound symbolism (onomatopoeia).
