"The Midnight Fox" - Rated 
I started reading this book in an English lesson with a teacher called Mrs Seargent. Hi. At the start of the book I found Tommy was not very active, unlike his dad. But when his mum and dad decide to go on a cycling holiday his surrounding area becomes totally different from concrete to trees and grass. His mind becomes set on helping out a black fox. But how does he do it and what does he protect it from? Tommy becomes a real country boy from a city boy and is so much more confident in himself. I think this would be suitable for age 10-13. I personally found this book very enjoyable.

The Midnight Fox Review, Mrs Sargents English class - Rated
The Midnight Fox is a book all about a city boy who is unsure about most things he hasn't done before, but when his Mum and Dad decide to go on a cycling trip in Europe, Tommy has no choise but to go to his Aunt Millie and Uncle Freds farm and live a completely different lifestyle. The country lifestyle is very different to what Tommy is used to, which is staying alone in his room, making models of aircraft but now he starts to try out new things and has a lot of new experiences because of it, especially his experience with the midnight fox, who captures Tommys heart and who changes him into a completly different boy. A boy who is confident, believes in himself and who wants to try new and more exciting things.

When Tommy's parents go away he is sent to a farm with his aunt and uncle. At first Tom dislikes everything apart from his models. He is convinced that if he did not like it once he will not like it now. His whole outlook on life changes when he sees the black fox. He turns into a hero when the fox and her baby are in danger. Although Betsy Byars go into depth in some parts of the books, I felt that in some parts, it lacked description. A good example of this is Tommy. Although he is the main character, you don't know what he looks like, if not for the pictures. I loved this book as I felt Tommy's pain when the fox is in trouble and I felt empathy for the little fox. I wanted to read on at home but I never did as then I would know what is happening before we read it class. I will definatly read this book again. Thank you Mrs Sargent for making me read this. :D
Dominic's review on the midnight fox 7WT - Rated
I thought "The Midnight Fox" by Betsy Byars was very in interesting. It was about a boy, happy with life sitting in a bedroom, making models, not enjoying life to the full. His parents had to go away, leaving him on an old farm, with old Aunt Mille, and hunting mad, Uncle Fred.
Tom writing a letter to Petie Burkis, looked up and saw something amazing, a black fox.
Tom, the main character whirls through a life of excitement, and joy of the Black Fox. Before, Tom always liked sitting in his room all day, playing with his models. He thought that going to the farm was going to be the worst thing ever for a Summer holiday, but soon realised it was the best.
I Recommend this book to people like me, who don't really like reading, as it is a great way to get you into it, the book most of the time is really funny, so I also recommend it to people that like a joke.
