Fantastic Mr. Fox by Roald Dahl (paperback)

In Fantastic Mr. Fox by Roald Dahl, the title character, Mr. Fox, is described as clever, quick-witted, and resourceful. He is a small but sleek and handsome fox with a bushy tail and bright, sharp eyes. Mr. Fox's defining trait is his intelligence and craftiness, especially in outwitting the three cruel farmers—Boggis, Bunce, and Bean—who are determined to catch him. Though he is small and vulnerable compared to the human characters, his agility, sharp thinking, and bravery allow him to protect his family and outmaneuver his enemies.
