Excerpt from the book:

"It was eleven o'clock in the morning when Boswell badger started to rustle about.
He scrambled out from beneath a big pile of leaves and sniffed the air. He said,
"It's going to rain today if I'm not mistaken." Just then tiny rain drops pitter
pattered down onto his shiny nose.

Boswell lives on the edge of Oak Wood. He has a big den. His home is very cosy.
He keeps it tidy and he has lined the floor with fern leaves, which are lovely to
sleep on and very warm. He has a pile of nuts hidden in the corner and, so the
squirrels don't try to rob him, he has hidden them under some oak leaves.

On Saturday, Boswell went over to see Geoffrey to see how he was getting on.
Geoffrey said he was going down to the stream to catch a fish. He asked Boswell if
he would like to help him. So they set off down the hill to the stream with some
blackberries tied to a piece of string. Boswell said to Geoffrey, "I don't think
fish are too keen on blackberries." "On the contrary," said Geoffrey, "they love
blackberries. My Grandpa caught a whooper when he used them as bait. Fish like
blackberries even more than grasshoppers." "Well, we'll see," said Boswell.
