Review :
"The Sly Fox and the Chicks is such a different type of book. Sure, it impresses upon the heart of a child the great importance of obedience to parents; it gently reminds a youngster of the seriousness of safety and of not talking to strangers. Many books do that. This one, which is about a fox who tricks chicks into coming with him to find delicious corn for themselves, even after the chicks' parents have warned them not to talk to ANYONE they did not know, allows the full consequential outcome of one character's actions to be witnessed in plain view: the bad little chick got 'ate up'. How often do you see THAT in a book? I had to laugh because it is just so refreshing to see an author, Carl Sommer, be so true to real life; finally, some real representation of what really happens out there! No babying here! Now, fear not, because that is as 'gruesome' as things get and of course you see no violence/blood or the like. However, it leaves you somewhat startled to experience the finality of the life of the now-extinguished character. Just like the real world. At any rate, the book had a strong message, which left my children remembering what the point was: Trust Dad and Mom. Obey your parents because they have your best interest at heart. -- Comments from Publisher, Gena Suarez ""The Old Schoolhouse magazine" The book, "The Sly Fox and the Chicks," by Carl Sommer, is about a family of chicks who are told "Never talk to strangers, even if they are friendly." Unfortunately, a couple of the chicks do not heed this warning, and end up being eaten by a sly fox in a lamb's disguise. This story uses a simple concept to teach children about "stranger danger." The story is easy to understand, but parents should be aware that there is more to discussing child safety with their children than "never talk to strangers." Children should understand what makes someone a stranger. Parents should also practice "what if" situations with their children. Give them the answers on what to do if they ever encounter dangerous situations. Child safety learning should become an integrated part of your child's everyday life.
