Reviews for Miss Fox's Class Gets it Wrong

[brangwinn · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

PSC REVIEW: Obviously, this is a picture book for children, but the message isn’t just for kids. How many times as adults have we participated in sharing a rumor that proves not to be true? Miss Fox is seen in the company of Officer Blue Fox too many times for them to believe she hasn’t broken the law. And not only that, but she’s been seen buying a suitcase and sunglasses for her getaway before she’s arrested. What a surprise for the class when they find out she’s going to marry Officer Blue Fox and the suitcase and sunglasses are for her honeymoon. A teacher getting married is always exciting and this is no exception. The school bus takes the wedding party to the church. The “students of honor” lead Miss Fox down the aisle to the happy policemen and all share in the joy of a wedding.
