George Washington meets his match in a wily fox in this legendary hunting tale from Newbery Award-winning author Marguerite Henry, back in print by popular demand.

Cinnabar is a fox. He lives in a den with his family, Vicky and four little cubs. He's a hardworking fox who does everything he can to ensure that his family has what they need. But during fox hunting season, he likes to have a little fun: Every hunt day, promptly at one o'clock, Cinnabar shows up and runs until nightfall. Can the huntsmen ever catch this clever fox?

Based on an old legend about fox hunting in the area around Mount Vernon, Cinnabar pits one very wily fox against George Washington himself-and the result is a wild chase for all! This beloved story from Newbery Award-winning author Marguerite Henry features the original text and illustrations with gorgeous new cover art.
