The Blurb On The Back:
Berries are red. Berries are blue.
What if another badger wants them all too?
Who knows what you might find in the berry bushes?
Follow Badger as he searches for answers, happiness … and the meaning of life.
( The Review (Cut For Spoilers): )
The Verdict:
The third in Huw Lewis Jones and Ben Sanders’ picture book series is a strange affair where the illustrations (all moody palette and muted shading) are a lot better than the text. The story itself is oddly pitched as Blue Badger finding a potential mate, but it’s vague, doesn’t flow well and I think younger readers will be confused by it. Ultimately it’s just a bit too weird and disjointed for me and I wouldn’t read the preceding books.
BLUE BADGER AND THE BEAUTIFUL BERRY was released in the United Kingdom on 9th February 2023. Thanks to the Amazon Vine Programme for the review copy of this book.
