He slips back into his old ways as a sneaky chicken thief—vexing three evil farmers and endangering his beloved family and the rest of the animal community. Trapped underground without enough food, the animals band together against the farmers, who want to get Mr. Fox at any cost. In the end, Mr. Fox does the right thing and uses his fantastic instincts to save his family and friends. about the authorRoald Dahl is known worldwide as the wickedly funny author of hugely popular children's stories. But it wasn't until he became a father—after two decades of writing for adults—that Dahl's focus turned to children's literature. Every night, he made up stories for his kids, learning just what tickles and captivates them. That was back in the '60s. Today, Dahl's stories continue to tickle and captivate countless kids—and the adults who read with them. * This exclusive event was recorded in front of a live audience at New York’s 92YTribeca.
