1 Books
Ylvis is a Norwegian comedy duo made up of brothers Bård and Vegard Ylvisåker, known internationally for their viral song “The Fox (What Does the Fox Say?).” The picture book What Does the Fox Say? adapts the lyrics and playful nonsense of their hit song for children. Their work is rooted in musical comedy, parody, and family-friendly absurd humor.
Dog goes woof, cat goes meow, and bird goes tweet. But one sound is still a mystery: what does the fox say?
This lively picture book turns the playful lyrics of Ylvis’s hit song into a silly, sound-filled read-aloud for young children. As familiar animals make their noises, the fox keeps everyone guessing with wild, surprising sounds that invite giggles, chanting, and repeat readings.
With Svein Nyhus’s energetic illustrations and a rhythm that practically begs to be spoken or sung, What Does the Fox Say? is a funny choice for preschoolers, early elementary readers, music lovers, and anyone who enjoys animal sounds with a twist.
