Sue's socks。" But Mr。 Fox Socks isn't about to let Knox off so easy。 Soon Goo-Goose is choosing to chew chewy gluey blue goo, while tweetle beetles battle with paddles Fox in Socks"This Fox is a tricky fox。 He'll try to get your tongue in trouble。" Dr。 Seuss gives fair warning to anyone brave enough to read along with the Fox in Socks, who likes to play tongue-twisting games with his friend Mr。 Knox。 "Here's an easy game to play。 Here's an easy thing to say。。。。 New socks。 Two socks。 Whose socks? Sue's socks。" But Mr。 Fox Socks isn't about to let Knox off so easy。 Soon Goo-Goose is choosing to chew chewy gluey blue goo, while tweetle beetles battle with paddles in a puddle (in case you were wondering, that's called a "tweetle beetle puddle paddle battle")。 Mr。 Knox gets exasperated: "I can't blab such blibber blubber! My tongue isn't made of rubber。" But he catches on to the game before it's all through。 One of Seuss's best, this must-read-aloud classic is guaranteed to get many giggles out of readers young and old。 (Ages 4 to 8) --Paul Hughes 。。。more

Genre: PoetryGrade Level: 1stThis is a Dr。 Seuss book, so of course it is great。 We have another nonsensical rhyme book, where the rhymes play a part within the nonsensical story。 We've got a Fox in socks who speaks only in rhyming tongue-twisters as the Knox tries to imitate him, making for an interesting and humorous story for children to follow along as they too try to read these tongue-twisters。 Genre: PoetryGrade Level: 1stThis is a Dr。 Seuss book, so of course it is great。 We have another nonsensical rhyme book, where the rhymes play a part within the nonsensical story。 We've got a Fox in socks who speaks only in rhyming tongue-twisters as the Knox tries to imitate him, making for an interesting and humorous story for children to follow along as they too try to read these tongue-twisters。 。。。more

I LOVE this book! It is my favorite Dr。 Seuss book ever; it is so much fun! I used to read this to my little sister when she was little, and would read it once slow then speed up every time after that。 She would giggle so much。 I just read it to my nephew today and he thought it was silly but there was "soooooo much rhyming!" It was cute。 Anyways, I love how fun this book is! I LOVE this book! It is my favorite Dr。 Seuss book ever; it is so much fun!

Fox in Socks written by Dr。 Seuss is full of wacky words, tongue twisters and alliterations。 This story follows the adventure of Fox, a red fox who wears blue socks, and Knox, a quiet yellow dog。 Knox has some difficulty in understanding many of Fox’s repetitive sentences and tongue twisters。 This book also contains many colorful illustrations, capturing even the small details。 For example, one of the illustrations that specifically caught my eye was on page 54-55, when the beetles were depicted Fox in Socks written by Dr。 Seuss is full of wacky words, tongue twisters and alliterations。 This story follows the adventure of Fox, a red fox who wears blue socks, and Knox, a quiet yellow dog。 Knox has some difficulty in understanding many of Fox’s repetitive sentences and tongue twisters。 This book also contains many colorful illustrations, capturing even the small details。 For example, one of the illustrations that specifically caught my eye was on page 54-55, when the beetles were depicted inside of a bottle holding their paddles, while also sitting on top of a poodle who was eating noodles。 The moral of this story is that showing off might not be the best idea。 I think that this book would be perfect to use for a read aloud in a kindergarten or first grade classroom。 。。。more

Fox in Socks is a simple story by Dr。 Seuss。 Throughout the book, Dr。 Seuss describes the situations that Fox and Knox find themselves using rhyme。 But, the trouble is that Fox has difficulty with tounge-twisters, many of which are used in describing some of the issues that he experiences。 This book is one of my favorite Dr。 Seuss book perfect for young kids。

Genre: poetryGrade level: 1st-2ndThis book is filled with tongue twisters, alliteration and so much rhyme!! I found it to be a little bit lengthy for this kind of book, but it would be a great read for students to really practice pronunciation。 This is such a classic book that would be a great addition to any classroom。

I love reading this out loud as fast as I can 😂

Helena Henriques

This may be a children’s book, but it definitely makes you want to keep reading and see if you can make it to the end! 😂 I struggle with the s’s and b’s。

see raamat oli vanaema juures olemas, kui ma väike olin, ja olen seda ilmselgelt umbes miljon korda。。。 lapanud, sest pildid on kõik megatuttavad。 aga kas ma kunagi lugeda ka üritasin, pole kindel。 teist Dr。 Seussi raamatut, mis meil ka olemas oli, "Green Eggs and Ham", lasin kindlasti vähemalt tõlkida endale, aga siin saab tõlgitav sisu üsna kärmelt otsa ja võib arvata, et keegi ei vaevunud väga。igatahes jah, arvasin, et nüüd on mul inglise keel piisavalt selge, et võiks läbi lugeda, aga raamatu see raamat oli vanaema juures olemas, kui ma väike olin, ja olen seda ilmselgelt umbes miljon korda。。。 lapanud, sest pildid on kõik megatuttavad。 aga kas ma kunagi lugeda ka üritasin, pole kindel。 teist Dr。 Seussi raamatut, mis meil ka olemas oli, "Green Eggs and Ham", lasin kindlasti vähemalt tõlkida endale, aga siin saab tõlgitav sisu üsna kärmelt otsa ja võib arvata, et keegi ei vaevunud väga。igatahes jah, arvasin, et nüüd on mul inglise keel piisavalt selge, et võiks läbi lugeda, aga raamatu lõppu jõudes olin umbes sama nördinud kui tegelane Knox: "My poor mouth can't say that。 No, sir。 My poor mouth is much too slow, sir。" ei saa ma nende keeleväänajatega hakkama ja lisaks selgub, et ma pole kunagi päris kindel olnud, kuidas hääldada sõnu "sew" ja "crow"。aga noh, vähemalt pildid olid toredad :) ei, õpetlik raamat。 ja kui kõva häälega ei püüa lugeda, siis edeneb kiirelt ja lihtsalt。 。。。more

I'm definitely more of a fan of the classics like Green Eggs and Ham and Horton Hears a Who, but this one is great。 This is Dr。 Seuss at his silly, harmless best。 He has a mildly irritating fox who is trying to entertain people with ridiculous tongue twisters。 Despite being written for five year olds, this book will definitely challenge adults who choose to read it aloud。 I'm definitely more of a fan of the classics like Green Eggs and Ham and Horton Hears a Who, but this one is great。 This is Dr。 Seuss at his silly, harmless best。 He has a mildly irritating fox who is trying to entertain people with ridiculous tongue twisters。 Despite being written for five year olds, this book will definitely challenge adults who choose to read it aloud。 。。。more

I love Dr。Seuss books, but this was my first time reading this one! It will be a really good read aloud book for my future class!

Marissa Patrone

I have always enjoyed reading this book。 Not only do I think it can be a good laugh for anyone attempting to read all of the tongue twisters, I think it can be an academic learning experience for children as well。 There is a ton of rhyming throughout the book, which can guide in children who are learning rhyming words。 Also, the tongue twisters get people to think harder about what they are going to say, which helps your brain process and speak what is on the page。 Overall, I think this is a fun I have always enjoyed reading this book。 Not only do I think it can be a good laugh for anyone attempting to read all of the tongue twisters, I think it can be an academic learning experience for children as well。 There is a ton of rhyming throughout the book, which can guide in children who are learning rhyming words。 Also, the tongue twisters get people to think harder about what they are going to say, which helps your brain process and speak what is on the page。 Overall, I think this is a fun book and I think everyone should at least attempt to read this book aloud once in their lives。 。。。more

What a wonderful surprise this book is! 😯😍

Jurnee Terry-

Another Dr。 Seuss classic, this book is a fan favorite due to the rhyming words and rhythm the book has。 It is not a favorite of mine, it can be hard to read at times but it says in the book that it is。 I would probably never use this book in the classroom because there are better books with plenty of rhyming words。

JoDesa

Whew what a tongue twister 😂

Jacob

The beetle battle part is fun。 Bin bending Ben’s broom is rough。

Rebecca

Read as a kid。 Tongue twisters! I dare you to read this book aloud without making a mistake!

Ana

really cute

Nicole

I forgot how hard some of the tongue twisters are to say out loud! I made a virtual video for my library and it took me 3 tries and I still messed up twice! Oh well。 LOL

Claire Brignac

Of course, Dr。 Seuss is one of the greatest children's books but this one was not really my favorite。 It is certainly funny listening to someone try to read this book because there are a lot of tongue twisters! It is a cute book for children to read and to laugh at because it is just a fun book to read。 I do enjoy reading Dr。 Seuss's books, but this one really is not my favorite。 Of course, Dr。 Seuss is one of the greatest children's books but this one was not really my favorite。 It is certainly funny listening to someone try to read this book because there are a lot of tongue twisters!

As every teacher and school child knows, it's once again time to celebrate that zany, fun, prolific author, the one and only Dr。 Seuss。 My school kicked off our week with crazy socks day, and Fox in Socks, so I read this one with my students。 It reminded me a lot of green eggs and ham with oodles of rhymes, plenty of outlandish scenarios, one character who wants to participate in the fun, and one who very much does not。 This was actually my first time reading this one, and I enjoyed it。 Like, al As every teacher and school child knows, it's once again time to celebrate that zany, fun, prolific author, the one and only Dr。 Seuss。 My school kicked off our week with crazy socks day, and Fox in Socks, so I read this one with my students。 It reminded me a lot of green eggs and ham with oodles of rhymes, plenty of outlandish scenarios, one character who wants to participate in the fun, and one who very much does not。 This was actually my first time reading this one, and I enjoyed it。 Like, all Seuss books, it's a silly, fun read。 My students enjoyed it, for the most part, as well。 They really liked the outlandish illustrations, but the length of the book was a little longer than their attention spans。 Of course, I recommend this one for parents and children, young readers, and classroom bookshelves。 。。。more

Another Seuss classic! Something I remember from my childhood was finding an actual Fox in Sox pair of socks! Those socks actually inspired me to read the funny rhyming story。
