“A fun, funny, and very foxy tale about whether it’s better to blend in or stand out. I loved it!”

— Chris Grabenstein, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Escape From Mr. Lemoncello's Library

Eleven-year-old fox kit Henry loves the theater and wants nothing more than to become an actor. But according to Henry's father, all respectable foxes should aspire to become accountants. When the city is terrorized by an outbreak of chicken thefts, conspiracy theories swirl and authorities immediately suspect a skulk of foxes is responsible for the crime. After the police catch Henry in the wrong place at the wrong time, he finds himself swept up in a thrilling fight to clear his name and bring the real culprits to justice, all while trying to prove to his father that there is no one right way to be a fox.
