What is A Very Proper Fox about?

Frankie the fox wants to be proper, but his favourite things are dancing, keeping everything tidy and eating baked beans. When Naughty Rabbit insists that real foxes catch chickens, Frankie sets off to prove himself. He sneaks towards a chicken’s house, growling and flexing his claws, but a very messy room distracts him. As Frankie tidies, his plans take an unexpected turn. Can he become the fierce fox everyone expects—or is it better to be himself?
