From the publisher
This book is about the death and life of someone very special. Badger was a friend, and almost everyone who knew him had warm and loving memories of when he was living with them. At first, those who loved Badger felt overwhelmed by their loss. In time though, whenever Badger’s name was mentioned, someone would recall something about him that made them all smile. And Badger was part of their lives once more.
