"Hattie, a big black hen, looks in the bushes one morning and sees a nose. 'Good grief!' says the goose . . . and a couple of other animals put their two cents in . . . pretty soon she realizes that the nose belongs to a fox! . . . Pictures, simplicity and length will make this a surefire story-hour hit".-- Booklist, starred review.

She said: "Literacy has become the great focus of my life – it's my passion, my battle and my mission and my exhaustion." She has published books on literacy aimed at children, their parents, teachers and educators. She held the position of Associate Professor, Literacy Studies, in the School of Education at Flinders University until her retirement in 1996. Since her retirement from teaching, Fox travels around the world visiting many countries and doing presentations and speaking on children's books and literacy issues. Following an interrogation by US immigration officials on a trip in February 2017 to deliver a keynote speech in Milwaukee, Fox said that she would probably never visit the US again."
