The Woodland Badger

Poppy loves spending time at her mum's allotment and the tangle of wild woodland behind it. They regularly see foxes and hedgehogs, but one special evening, just as they are about to head home, they spot a young badger. It's the first time Poppy has ever seen one in real life, and she's entranced. Then Poppy learns that the woodland has been sold and there are plans to build houses on it. Poppy and her mum are horrified. Is there anything they can do to save the young badger's home? A heartwarming story about family and nature from best-selling author Holly Webb.
