Dexter the fox is frustrated when his owl and hare friends keep winning their chasing game—until he remembers that he has a special talent, too.

Dexter the fox loves to play chase with Molly the hare and Olive the owl. But while Molly keeps bounding away on her great big feet and Olive swoops ahead with just a flap of her wings, Dexter simply can’t keep up, try as he might. What are foxes good at? In the third book of this gently humorous, gorgeously illustrated series exploring young children’s big emotions, award-winning author-illustrator Catherine Rayner brings clever Dexter to the fore as she shows that we all have something important to bring to the game.
Catherine Rayner is the creator of two previous books about this trio of animal friends. She is also the author-illustrator of Harris Finds His Feet, winner of the Kate Greenaway Medal, as well as My Pet Goldfish and other acclaimed picture books. She exhibits her artwork in galleries all over the world and illustrates her own line of greeting cards. Catherine Rayner lives in Scotland.
