Woodland Scene Michael Cockett

'Problems at Brock Manor' is the second book from Michael, in the Woodland Scene series of light-hearted and humerous stories about the country lives of humanoid animals. Book I: 'The Badgers of Brock Manor' was centered on the lives of the Badgers who live in Brock Manor and their servants. Bastien Badger, who inherited the Manor from his father in preference to his elder brother Basil (Boots) Badger, managed to stop the Weasel family from taking over his Manor with help, but in this sequel to Book 1, Bastien, has problems holding on to his Manor. The problems are from within his own family, particularly his Aunt Blanche, younger sister to his deceased father, Sir Regnault Badger, who thinks, Basil, her favourite nephew, should have inherited the Manor as she wants to live there. Bastien Badger has a great deal of help from his loyal gardener Bobby Bunny and the Bunnies, who eventually, through their ingenious activities, manage to help Bastien regain possession of his inheritance which, hopefully, will lead to an agreement on the future peaceful residency of the Manor, but who knows?
