a must-read for animal-lovers

The Year of the Badger is the touching story of how a family brought up an orphaned badger. The badger, Nikki, is such a sweet , adorable little thing in the beginning, and as she grows up she becomes more cunning and mischievous. She's so cute, it makes me want to have a pet badger myself. She is constantly getting into trouble and causing humorous situations. After a while, her natural instincts take over and it becomes evident that she needs to be set free. I don't want to give away the whole book, so read it yourself.
