Fox in Socks

Not one of Dr. Suess's best

This book is pretty fun to read aloud but it is definitely not one of Dr. Suess's better books. I like Green Eggs, Ham and Cat in the Hat, and Oh The Places You'll Go much more than this book. The rhymes in this book don't always flow well and there really isn't much of a real story, just strange situations cobbled together to get you tongue tied. I really like Oh the Places You'll Go because the words rhyme well but there is also a very good story and lesson told in the book. It's a good book for kids and adults alike. My daughter also pays attention to that story longer when I am reading it to her than Fox in Socks. She make like reading Fox in Socks more later when she starts reading on her own, but for now, it's not a big hit.

Fox in Socks, ROCKS!

Of course we all love Dr Seuss, and this book it a total Tongue Twister. There are silly warnings, (which should be taken seriously) at the beginning of the book and on the cover. My 5 year old is learning her words, and enjoyed reading this book, though I believe I enjoyed it more. It's a delightfully wonderful book about a silly fox who tries to get a Knox to say all these tongue twisting games. The Knox doesn't believe he can say everything that the fox wants him to say, but of course in trying to deny his ability to say all the tongue twists, he ends up saying them all, plus adding his own. This is a delightful Dr. Seuss and enjoyed by us!

Fox in Socks for crazy socks day

I bought this book to read to Kindergarteners as part of our school's week long celebration of Dr. Suess. This book is much too long and much too difficult for 5 and 6 year olds to listen to and enjoy. I gave it to a 2nd grade teacher.

Great book to read with kids!

My son received this book for his birthday when he was small. It is funny and quite a tongue twister. It makes a great gift!

Excellent for Beginning Readers!

Great for sounding out words - learning about words that rhyme - colorful and fun to read!

stories with my grandson

I have several books that I buy 2 of and my grandson has a copy in Vancouver and I have one. Dr Seuss is some of our favorites. We Skype at night an I get t read him bedtime stories live. He loves this book because much of it he can read himself.

i love dr. seuss

I love all the dr. seuss books inculding this one

Great Book

This is an awesome Book to have in one's own library.

Everyone should own Seuss works, along with Ohio Blue Tips by Jeanne E. Clark, The Photos In The Closet by Daniel E. Lopez, and works by Alison Townsend.

I loved this, now my kids love it!

My daughter loves this from page one... "Take it SLOWLY! This book is DANGEROUS!" She's 2.

Dangerously Awesome and Funny Book!!

This book is definitely dangerous! It's full of funny but awesome riddles, Dr. Seuss was definitely a genius to have written this, and to make it funny and witty enough for young minds to actually want to read it. My daughter loves trying to read it (she can't make it through the book yet without getting tongue-tied), and she loves when I read it to them, but normally I can't finish the book neither because I drop down laughing from all the silliness. I wholeheartedly recommend this book if you have children, or even if you don't but enjoy a book full of silly rhymes and tongue-twisters :-)

Great to read out loud!

A book designed to twist your tongue into contortions, kids love the wackiness and also seem to enjoy seeing the grown ups mess up. Not for lightweight adult readers.

Fox in Socks

This book is a rhyming book with a fox who wears socks, and has to count how many socks and who where¿s socks. It is a really fun book to read, but it¿s a tongue twister, you really have to watch the words you read or you will get tongue tied. Seuss, Dr. Fox in Socks. New York: Random House Inc. 1965.

Your tongue will be numb!!

This book is great. I read it as a child, and I still enjoy reading it today. No matter how much you read it, the tongue twisters found here will keep you on the edge of your seat trying over and over until you get them right!! This book is contagious for readers young and old.

The BEST learning tools!

I have taught my 3 children to read with 2 books, Green Eggs & Ham and Fox in Socks. It's fun reading that always holds the childs interest and and you can start reading to them at 2 years old or younger. Dr. Suess hit the nail on the head with his books.
