Süßes Kinderbuch mit Spannung auch für Groß, am Anfang aber ein bisschen zu ausschweifend. Darüber hinwegzukommen, lohnt sich aber definitiv. ( )

A sweet children's story about the life of a badger. There's no plot to speak of, and Fridolin doesn't make friends with humans or cute animals or anything, but I really enjoyed reading about the grumpy little guy's life and I think other children would too.

Fun fact: the human family Fridolin encounters in the story is named Ditzen -- and the author's real name is Rudolf Ditzen. It's hard to believe this was the same man who wrote Every Man Dies Alone. ( )
