Fox is not a fan of winter. His friends have all migrated south or are hibernating. He tries making new friends out of snow figures, but they don't do anything. Fox packs his bags to head south, but the ticket windows for buses, planes, and rockets have closed for the season. Deciding to fight winter with a flame thrower seems like an excellent idea, until a blizzard extinguishes his weapon. Finally, he comes across Rabbit, who teaches Fox how to enjoy the solitude of winter, and they decide to be "alone together." This simple and funny story employs an easy-to-follow plot, with added humor in the illustrations. (Ages 3-7)

Fun-loving, mischievous Fox—the hilarious trickster
character featured in Geisel Award–winning Fox the Tiger—goes up against
a surprising foe!

Fox does not like winter. None of his friends are around to
play. He is bored and alone. Then Fox has an idea. If he cannot escape winter,
he will fight it!
