Morning Starters: Summer 1 - Roald Dahl's Animals
Did You Know?
Have you ever seen a fox dart across a garden or road at night? In Roald Dahl’s Fantastic Mr. Fox, a clever fox outsmarts three greedy farmers—Boggis, Bunce, and Bean—by stealing their food. In real life, many foxes have left the countryside for towns and cities, where food is easier to find. Bright lights, bins, and leftovers make urban life attractive to foxes, who are just as cunning in real life as Dahl imagined.
