Description

Scrapper helps his fox friend find his groove in the fourth book of a chapter book series from the creators of Good Dog!

Scrapper’s fox friend, Mitts, is great at building things. What he's not so great at is dancing, and Scrapper thinks he can help with that. After all, he taught Bo how to swim, way back when. How hard could it be to teach a critter to dance?

But in the end, Scrapper and Mitts both learn that dancing isn’t all about being good or bad. It’s about letting loose and having a howlin’ good time!

With easy-to-read language and illustrations on almost every page, Scrapper chapter books are perfect for emerging readers.

About the Author

Cam Higgins wrote her very first book about a cat who lived in an alleyway when she was eight years old. As a child, she loved visiting a neighboring farm and seeing all the animals. Now Cam has a pup of her own, who is very mischievous, and she still loves writing about animals. Cam lives in New York City with her two children, her husband, and Laila the dog.

As soon as Ariel Landy learned how to draw a sky beyond a blue scribbled line, she knew she wanted to be an illustrator. Raised on coloring books and crayons outside of Boston, she now lives in France with her husband and dog. Visit her online at ArielLandy.com.
