There is a nominally humorous conceit -- a fox says "let's have so-and-so for breakfast"; do they mean, invite them to have breakfast with us, or let's eat them? Carnivorous humor. But watching it played out with the little kids politely telling their neighbor to get his mama, so they can politely try to trick her into the pot, the oven, etc. It was a little creepier than the usual fox/wolf trying to eat a pig / chicken / whatever story. [return][return]On top of that mild creepiness I was outright irked by the patriarchal language, which was just weird: The father was clearly giving orders, it was described as the father's house, and there were a lot of other little linguistic gestures to patriarchy. [return][return]Can't recommend it. Read "Goldilocks" instead! ( ) I have to say I was somewhat creeped out by this book.
