Fox and Crow Are NOT Friends by Melissa Wiley

It all started over a piece of cheese...

Random House Kids Books sent me this Step Into Reading softcover to review (thank you).  This is a Level 3 book, for grades 1-3.  It is available now, so check with your local bookstore for a copy.

Fox is devious and when he sees Crow with a nice piece of cheese, he compliments him until Crow drops the cheese.  Then he eats it!  Thus begins the war between the two animals. Each animal is smart, so the tricks get more and more interesting.

My favorite part is the ending.  Gilbert & Sullivan penned "To let the punishment fit the crime..." and that's what happens here.  I love it!

Happy reading.
