About this book

Deep in the quiet countryside, a shy young badger named Brian lives all alone. His family vanished one night, and now he comes out only after dark, longing for someone to talk to.

Then, one moonlit evening, Brian hears soft crying coming from a prickly bramble bush, and everything changes.

The Lonely Badger is a gentle, beautifully illustrated bedtime story about loneliness, courage, and the friendship that finds us when we least expect it. Following Brian and a lost little rabbit called Rigby, young readers learn that kindness is always rewarded, and that a true friend can turn the loneliest field into a home.

Soft, painterly watercolour illustrations on every page. First in the David Binelli Nature Tales series. Perfect for bedtime, quiet time, or sharing the magic of the natural world.

Who it is for

Children aged 5 to 9, especially quiet kids with big hearts. A read-aloud about loneliness, courage and kindness, painted in soft moonlit watercolours.
