Synopsis
Badger gets up one morning feeling very grumpy. "Humph!" Badger says to himself. "I'm in a bad mood. Maybe I'd better stay at home." But at breakfast, Badger reconsiders. What is the point of being in a bad mood if nobody notices? he thinks. So Badger heads out, slamming the door behind him. Badger spreads his bad mood far and wide, greeting all his friends with angry, rude remarks, which puts them in bad moods, too. By afternoon, Badger has come up with a fine way to shed his own bad mood, but what can he do to cheer up the other animals?
A comical, cautionary tale for anyone who has ever gotten up on the wrong side of the bed.

From School Library Journal
PreSchool-Grade 2–When Badger wakes up in a bad mood, he decides that everyone should know how miserable he feels. By the time he's finished his morning walk, all of the forest animals have been treated so rudely that they are in equally foul moods and annoyed with him. By this time, his mood has changed, but the others refuse to speak to him. Blackbird comes to visit, listens sympathetically to Badger's problem, and together they come up with a solution. This rather simplistic tale lacks any texture or depth and relates a fairly obvious message. These animals inhabit a forest dominated by an aqua palette and a clean horizon, dotted here and there by an occasional tree; it's a landscape as spare as the tale. Badger bears an amazing physical resemblance to the protagonist of Hiawyn Oram's Badger's Bad Mood (Scholastic, 1998), but Oram's tale has all of the texture and charm that this story lacks.–Jane Marino, Bronxville Public Library, NY
