“The Badger from Our Yard” is already the fifth book by the classic of Hungarian children’s literature, the amazing storyteller Pál Bekes, published in Russia (previously published “Treasures on the Street of the Son of the White Horse”, “The Woe-Wizard”, “The Wise Corrector of Deficiencies” and “The Conqueror of Fear”) Readers have already had the opportunity to meet such a bright personality as the retired badger Mikheyskornyazhkin in the picture book “Treasures on the Street of the Son of the White Horse” with illustrations by Levente Szabo. Its exquisite design will certainly be remembered by both adults and children, and the publication of all seven fairy tales with illustrations by Svetlana Korotkova is not inferior to its Hungarian predecessor. Now readers will be able to continue their acquaintance with the wise Mikheyskornyazhkin, and at the same time meet other badgers who also deserve attention: beautiful and ugly, with smooth coats and unkempt ones, cheerful and gloomy, homebodies and fidgets... Badgers will come to the aid of a child who has lost his apartment key and a tree , which for no apparent reason was ordered to be cut down. Among the badgers there are craftsmen who can cause rain when the earth languishes from heat and drought. Badgers will protect their beloved raccoon from a formidable lion and will judge a dispute with foxes with their inherent justice. It seems that there was a place for all the badger talents in Bekesh’s witty book, didn’t it?
