Dd is reading a series of books aloud in her tutor group at school. She seems to be enjoying them and can tell me the storyline but not the title etc. It’s driving me mad!
It’s about two teen brothers who live with their dad. The mum has gone to Canada (?) and the older boy has learning difficulties so the younger looks after him. They find a badger sett and some other boys are trying to kill the badgers. There’s a dog called Tina who they rescue when injured and a baby badger that they take home that is called Snuffy. The older boy tells some friends about the rescue animals and they visit but then then the next day the shed is robbed and the animals gone. They find the nasty boys with the badger tied to a stick and the dog on a lead trying to harm more badgers. Somehow the police get involved and the animals are saved, the dog goes to live with the boy.
This is book 1 of a series, I would love to find them! Need a gift idea for dd for Christmas and it’s unusual for her to tell me so much about a book now! Thank you.
