    This book, " The Foxman" Its about how a 15 year old boy is abused by his parents who are complete drunks. After this happening before, they go through court, Carl is sent to his Uncle Harolds for two years until his parents stop drinking. As he gets there he is greeted by the other family members that live there like his cousins Carl and Don. Also other parts of the family like MIldred, and Hans and Agile. They also had a nice bedroom seet up for him, and not long after Carl putr his bed in with him.
    That summer they bucked, or cleared a field, that was 10 acres big and cleared trees and stumps, but with the help of their team of horses, Jim and Digger, they helped finish pulling stumps. As the summer was over and it became a cold winter, they set up traps and snares to catch small game.
    One time as they where looking at their traps they spot a fox. As they track down the animal for a great amount of time and miles, they soon stop chasing it. They soon turned around to go home when they notice a small shack they never seen before. As they go to investigate they go in and a man called " the Foxman" lives there. He is called this name because of the fox he trapsw in the winter. That night they narew served big steaks and potates. The Foxman offers them his bed and they sleep the night.

    The Foxman is a very good book that would be for someone who enj

    The Foxman is a very good book that would be for someone who enjoys a relaxing, outdoorsy book. Someone who is a farmer or a hunter/ trapper would most likely enjoy this book. The main character is based on Gary Paulsen. He is a 15 year old who is abused by his parents. They are abusive because they drink a lot. Since they are abusive he is sent to his Uncle Harolds. Him and his cousin Carl become pretty close. Carl helps him do things and explains how to do them. For example, when he needed snowshoes Carl told and showed hin how to make them. The setting takes place on an old farm. If they want or need something they must make it or hunt for it. One day when the two boys were chasing after a fox they went to far up north and were lost with a snow storm coming. They discovered an old shack with smoke coming out the chimney. There was an elderly guy named the Foxman who was wounded from war that lived there. He was sorry for the lonley old man and kept going to visit him. They became real close and he went up there multiple times.Then the unthinkable happened

    The Foxman

    The book The Foxman is a very enjoyable book for kids 10-13. It is about a boy who comes to live at his aunt and uncles farm in Minnisota. He forms a relationship with an old man whos face was mangled in a war. It has a very good ending so just stick it out for a while.
