(4) K-3 Translated by J. Alison James. Illustrated by Amelie Jackowski. Foul-tempered Badger sets off on a walk, spreading bad cheer. Later he feels better and is ready to play with the other animals--but why is everyone so rude? The story, illustrated with cheery paintings, teaches a worthwhile lesson, but the resolution (a bad-mood party and an apology) is too easy. However, this might be just the thing to turn a frown upside down.
