‘Naughty Japanese Badgers’
by Sarah Rundle
They’re very naughty, they have massive inflatable scrotums, an insatiable appetite for fried noodles and saké, and they love to play tricks on unwary travellers.
You don’t want to be out roving on a cold January night, prey to all the roguish ruses that Badgers might dupe you with. No – you want to be inside in the warm at Brigsteer Village Hall, listening to Kamishibai picture-stories of rascally Japanese Badgers.
(They’re really very naughty.)
Sarah’s work has been described by Ben Haggarty as “truly magical….. it sparkles with a particularly glorious English humour.”
