Mr Badger's Christmas Wish

There's a rustling and a bustling,
Down in the woods today...

The night before Christmas, the woods are humming with activity as everyone - from excited little hedgehogs and mice to naughty little fox cubs - prepares for Santa Bear's arrival. But why is Mr Badger sulking in his den? An ideal Christmas gift for the very young, this is a big-hearted and bouncy interactive rhyming story about one kind little fox cub who persuades a rather grumpy badger to fall in love with the magic of Christmas.
