Plot Summary

Miss Fox's class is back, and this time the students are lethargic and cranky until they learn to eat better, exercise, and get more sleep. "This class is going to get fit!" Miss Fox says. "So we can be ready for Field Day?" asks Frog. "Not just for Field Day," says Miss Fox. "For every day!"

Reviews

"The cartoonlike watercolor and ink illustrations are filled with movement and detail. The 'Health and Fitness Tips' on the endpapers are accompanied by scenes from the story." School Library Journal

"...Spinelli creates plenty of fun along the way. Full of energy and humor, Kennedy's colorful line-and-wash illustrations depict high-spirited dressed-animal characters acting their parts (and acting up) in a convincingly childlike way. A fine addition to the Miss Fox's Class series."
Booklist

"The combination of can-do attitude and cute animals make it hard not to jump on the wellness bandwagon; the challenge is just to keep from falling off."
