Badger Books by Paddy Donnelly

Badger Books is the newest picture book from award winning author/illustrator Paddy Donnelly!

‘Badger Books’ is a bookshop, run by a badger. On its shelves, you can find books about every animal. From bears to elephants, tigers to dinosaurs and pandas to narwhals. But there’s one book they don’t have … and it’s one that Rory the Fox really, really wants.

Badger Books published by O’Brien Press, 5th May 2025. Get your copy here!

Paddy Donnelly the launch of Badger Books, with a week full of fun in his Irish Book Tour!

His agent Susan Penny joined Paddy in Ireland for the launch at Dubray Books, buzzing events at many bookshops including the gorgeous Hodges Figgis, and school visits where Paddy read Badger Books and helped kids create their very own zines, complete with proud showcases and book signings.

The Book tour kicked off on 5th May in Belfast and wrapped up on 11th May at Ballyscullion Park Book Festival. What a way to bring Badger Books into the world!
