From Readers' Favorite

Blaze is a seriously entertaining writer who gets the odd and quirky humor kids like, and many fortunate adults somehow still appreciate. Joe's the new kid, but he quickly ends up with a best friend who just happens to be a fox -- one who also has a sense of humor and a predilection for outrageous ideas. My Fox Ate My Homework is most highly recommended. - Jack Magnus ★★★★★

My Fox Ate My Homework by David Blaze is an ideal book for children from eight to thirteen years old, and would be an excellent addition to any school library. Without doubt, it would result in stimulating and unusual class discussions. Joe meets a fox, an extremely unusual fox successfully designed to be irresistible to youngsters. - Sarah Stuart ★★★★★

David Blaze has done a marvelous job in capturing sentiments and problems that kids face as they grow up. Bullying is one of the themes that is so masterfully developed and it's a common reality in modern schools. My Fox Ate My Homework is an entertaining and educative read for kids; a grand success. - Ruffina Oserio ★★★★★

From the Author

Could a talking fox help the new kid in town overcome his fears and feel accepted?

I considered this for months before I began to write My Fox Ate My Homework. Of course foxes can't talk, and they're known for being sly, cunning, crafty, wily--but what if a child fox was all of this and still wanted to be your friend? A friend that could make your whole world better?

I enjoyed every second of writing this book. A boy who wants to do his best, help his mom, and feel accepted--with everything stacked against him. He has an honest and loyal heart. I love what he stands for. I love his courage. And I love his innocence.

And then there's the talking fox! He's witty and cunning, but he has a helpful heart. I love, love, love Fox!

I wrote this book to teach my son values as he grows older. Values like loyalty, honesty, sincerity, and to always have a giving heart. I hope you enjoy reading this book as much as I enjoyed writing it.

    AL. Ms. Cox the 6th grade English teacher welcomed everyone to her class.
    Jonah “Joe” Johnson (6th grade) the new kid was introduced.
    Shane Connors was trying to bully Joe.
    Melissa introduced herself after class was over.
    Mitch Connors (IRS) came to confront Ms. Julia Johnson (mother).
    It seems Rita (great grandmother) had not paid the $14,112.00 property taxes.
    They would have to move in with Uncle Mike.
    Joe started on his English assignment My best friend.
    Who is Joe’s best friend?
    Shane read his paper, then it was Joe’s turn.
    Later cleaning out the house what did Uncle Mike, Julia, & Joe find?

    I did not receive any type of compensation for reading & reviewing this book. While I receive free books from publishers & authors, I am under no obligation to write a positive review. Only an honest one.

    A very awesome book cover, great colored pictures & proper font & writing style. A very well written children’s fantasy story book. It was very easy for me to read/follow from start/finish & never a dull moment. There were no grammar/typo errors, nor any repetitive or out of line sequence sentences. Lots of exciting scenarios, with several twists/turns & a great set of unique characters to keep track of. This could also make another great children’s fantasy movie, an animated cartoon, or better yet a mini TV series. To be continued. There is no doubt in my mind this is a very easy rating of 5 stars.

    Thank you for the free author; BookSends; Amazon Digital Services LLC.; book

    Jonah (Joe) Johnson is an eleven- year- old whose life has just been turned upside down. His mother lost her job in Orlando so they have moved to his deceased grandmother's old house in rural Alabama. On the first day in school, Joe is confronted by a bully who demands that Joe write his homework assignment.

    Things go from bad to worse when the tax collector appears and informs them that the property taxes are overdue and the county would be foreclosing. Now they will need to move into his Uncle Mike's house. When Joe goes outside he discovers a fox in the hen house, not any old fox but a talking fox! Joe and Fox become fast friends, but not before Fox causes all sorts of mayhem as Joe desperately tries to think of ways to help his mother, face the bully and maintain his friend relationship with Fox.

    This fantasy tale is written well with lots of authentic dialogue and humor. Middle- grade students will find lots to love. There are cute cartoon- like drawings of the characters interspersed with the text. Blaze touches on issues important to students in this age group. The tale is an easy read that is under one hundred pages which makes it appealing to reluctant readers. Highly recommended for eight to twelve- year- olds, and adults who are willing to listen to a talking fox.

    3.0 out of 5 stars Excessive Advertising and Weak Illustrations Weaken a Good Children's Book
    Reviewed in the United States on December 26, 2020
    This is a children’s book aimed at the 8-12 age group. The book has one incredible element – an intelligent, talking fox – while everything else is normal, or as normal as it could be for twelve-year-old Jonah. He is attending a new school, which prompts the normal apprehensions accompanying the desire to “fit in.” Jonah and his mother have found that their plans of where to live have changed, further complicating his life.

    And then there is the fox. Once the two have met, Jonah desires to continue for both to meet, although that won’t be possible if he has to move.

    The book moves along quickly, and author David Blaze has written the book to draw younger readers into Jonah’s life, thus encouraging them to continue turning the pages. It is easy for them to identify with the main character. I am not sure what the author intended for the pictures to convey. They are small drawings with no background and just one individual character at a time. For all that the “illustrations” provided, they may as well have been omitted.

    The story is much shorter than you may be led to believe. It is over about two-thirds into the book, and the rest of the book is nothing more than “free previews,” ads for other books which the purchaser is paying for. While I recommend the story of “My Fox Ate My Homework,” I was dismayed to find so much advertising filler at the end of the book. Three-and-a-half stars.

    I chose this rating because this book was a hilarious fantasy! It was also very very interesting as well as funny.
    I liked the part where Shane, the school bully, records Fox and Jonah, who likes to be called Joe, the main character, on Joe's birthday.
    I disliked nothing! It was all so interesting and nice and I wanted to know more as I read on. The beginning was the only thing that was quite boring. But the middle and end is AMAZING!
    I recommend this to anyone who likes funny and interesting stories. And this is a perfect book for people who like funny and interesting books!
