Badger's Wood

(1958)
A novel by

 
 
This is a book about the denizens of Deep Wood -- Old Stripe the Badger, Potter the Otter, Woo Owl, little Digger Mole and their neighbors of copse and river and treetop.

It is also a book about friendship and courage and individuality -- and high adventure. For what starts out as a domestic upset (who broke Potter's wheel and raided Mole's bean patch?) quickly becomes a breathless drama of piracy in which the animals' skill, daring and resourcefulness are put to the test.

Children will enjoy the human quirks and foibles of the adventurers, gobble up the nautical details of boat building, salvage and midnight raids, and cheer the ending which turns foes into friends.
