"The folks lived in the house near the lake, while the badger stayed in the cave on Baumwerder's southern slope. (... ) Fridolin was uninterested in the alterations to the house, but the fact that these people erected fences everywhere, crisscrossing his quietest night walks, and cutting him off from his best feeding areas caused him a great deal of anguish. Additionally, these couple had a large number of offspring; Fridolin couldn't count beyond two, because a badger can only count to two; everything beyond two he refers to as a lot."
If the fox Isolein had not chased the badger Fridolin out of his snug cave in the Hullerbush Forest, he may have been the most famous badger: the laziest, grouchiest, and most reclusive representative of his type. But now he must locate a new, equally lovely home, and in the process, he manipulates the entire Ditzen family, including the well-behaved Mücke.
Hans Fallada created this story as a Christmas 1944 gift for his daughter Lore, also known as Mücke. At the time, publishing was ruled out; the self-produced booklet was to be "intended solely for Mücke." As a result, Fallada abstained from using his given name in order to maintain the otherwise rigorous distinction between the private guy Ditzen and the public figure Fallada.
