Description
Badger lives in an old house that he loves, but it has a leaky old roof and noisy banging shutters. After a big storm, when the shutters blow off and rain pours in, Badger is fed up and decides he wants a new house — one that doesn't need to be fixed up. So he moves into a fancy new house, but it is just too BIG and it doesn't feel like home. What can Badger do to solve his dilemma?
