A hilarious picture book about a very hungry, and rather

unlucky, badger in search of a sandwich - with a wickedly funny

twist in the tale

One day, a boy drops his sandwich in a sandpit, and the

race is on! A very hungry badger wants it, but he's just

not quick enough. The sandwich is dropped, squashed and slithered

over by everyone from a squirrel, to a fox, to a band of

slugs.

Will the badger ever get his paws on that sandwich? And will he even

want it if he does, or will it just be too disgusting?

Children will love the 'yuck factor' of the ending, when the

badger ditches the sandwich in favour of slurping up all the slimy

slugs

Beautifully written with satisfying repetition and a refrain

children will love joining in with

Gorgeous illustrations by Hannah Shaw bring this funny picture

book to life in glorious, quirky detail
