The hounds are howling, the horses are galloping, and the royal hunt is officially on. Deep in the autumn woods, a very clever and remarkably fast fox is suddenly on the run from a thundering pack of hunters. But this is no ordinary fox, and he has absolutely no intention of getting caught. You will race right alongside him as he dashes through dense thickets, leaps over rushing streams, and uses every brilliant trick he knows to outsmart the noisy dogs trailing close behind. With sharp wits and a lot of courage, the sly hero turns a dangerous chase into an exhilarating game of hide-and-seek. This thrilling, beautifully illustrated adventure takes you straight into the heart of the forest to root for the smartest creature in the woods as he triumphantly finds his way to safety.
