Flossie Finley is a bold and clever little girl who is not easily scared. When she is trusted to deliver a basket of fresh eggs across the woods, she is warned about a notorious, egg-stealing fox on the prowl. Sure enough, she soon runs into the smooth-talking animal. But instead of running away in fear, Flossie simply refuses to believe he is a fox at all! She demands that he prove his identity, outsmarting the trickster at every turn. This charming and funny story is a delightful battle of wits that proves courage and quick thinking can defeat even the craftiest of villains.
