The first in a series featuring the delightful Mr. Badger and his friends, and the world of the Boubles Grand hotel

Mr. Badger is the special events manager of London's Boubles Grand Hotel and is in charge of parties, weddings, balls—anything, really, that is a special occasion. When he and his assistant, Miss Pims, prepare for Miss Sylvia Smothers-Carruthers' seventh birthday party, little does Mr. Badger know just what is in store for Sylvia, and for him.
