HEAVY METAL BADGER

Heavy Metal Badger is one of The Times Best Children’s Books of 2023.

“The story every little metalhead has been waiting for” – The Times

An empowering rock anthem, from the fantastically-funny writer/illustrator Duncan Beedie, celebrating identity and self-expression.

Badger is ready to ROCK! The music inside him is ready to burst out. He just needs to find a band. But recorder class isn’t right. Neither’s the choir. Nor the marching band. Oh, will Badger ever find his musical tribe? Perhaps it’s been there all along…

Children will love the laugh-out-loud chaos that Badger causes on his quest for a musical home. Packed with tons of rock-themed references, puns and visual jokes, this is the perfect picture book for budding rock music lovers.

Climaxing in the Woodrock Weekender festival with a band line-up including Quack Sabbath, Lion Maiden, Nine Inch Snails, Goatorhead, and Houndgarden… even adults will love this story!
