My beloved illustrated children's story about badgers (What was the name??)

Fans of "talking animal" stories might want to check out Kay Shapero's Furry pages.

Glad you found it. I know how frustrating it can be trying to remember a book title.

Re: reliving childhood memories

I wouldn't mind doing some of that myself. But the memories I'm most interested in came a bit later in my childhood. For instance, there was this one time when we were up in New Hampshire after second semester exams were over, and we were at this party where I met this girl (who was a dead ringer for Elizabeth Hurley right down to the smile and British accent!) and...um...yes...sorry...let's forget about that for the moment shall we?

I think if we were at the same party, we'd be fighting for the same girl.  Don't forget!  Relish!

Absolutely. Relish indeed.

My GF also politely suggests pickles, honey, whipped cream, and any other "garnish" or fixin' you can think of while you're at it.   ;D

And images!

EHurley. England Prevails!

P.S. Wouldn't have had to compete over that one. She arrived and left with her husband. The fact she was unavailable, however, did nothing to diminish her charm. Or my enjoyment of it. :Thmbsup:

She's one of those perfect 10 women.  I remember her heydey in the 90's, nobody stood a chance.

The Redwall series from Brian Jacques are some of my favourite 'talking animal' books.  Wonderful series.

superboyac:
This book doesn't seem to be readily available from retailers.  I've contacted a commercial scanner and I'm going to scan this to a pdf for preservation.  The authors and illustrators, Eric and Lucy Kincaid, are awesome.  I think what separates these stories form other similar stories to me are the soothing nature of them.  They are not really big, epic action/adventure stories.  Just nice little tales of friendly animals living in the woods.  It reminds me of the peaceful kind of lifestyle I'd like to live one day.
