Wish the badger had a name

Over use of the words Honey Badger detracted from my overall enjoyment of this book. I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

Entertaining for kids and adults

Oftentimes I can't stand the books that my kids listen to. But this is not one of those books. In fact I think that I may have enjoyed this book a lot more than my kids. I think that they best way to put it is that this book has personality. It is quirky and fun and I will definitely be listening to it again.

Fun Book!

A badger with major attitude and no friends! All the animals he wronged over the years ganged up against him. A modern twist to a kid's book. Fun book, nicely narrated.

Nice moral story for adults

As the title says: for grown ups. Very short story with a clear moral. More than one could feel identified. Perfect narration for the story.

The Chuck Norris of the Animal World

I LMAO through this entire listen! This parody of a children's book was hilarious. perfect for a quick laugh. The narrator did a superb job acting out the characters. I just wish I could give it 6 stars.

The Very Hungry Honey Badger

This is a very quick and amusing listen for adults. If you are looking for a quick easy book this one might be for you. The story reads like a childrens story but do not be misled this is not a story for little ones. The honey badger is always angry, always hungry and always looking for a fight. This story is an enjoyable listen and we can all imagine someone we know as the cranky honey badger. Narrator Gareth Johnson does a good job of making this listen dramatic and fun. This entertaining and silly story was a nice break in my busy day.

8 min of fun

I was given this free review copy audio book at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

At only 8 minutes, I wouldn't spend a credit on it, but I will say that I was very entertained for that 8 minutes. The narration is great, so if you want a quick laugh, it's definitely worth a couple bucks.

A clean fun way to spend a few minutes..

This adult parody of a children's book is the perfect length for a quick break during a stressful day. I'm LMAO because the honey badger is my 24 year old son. The narrator really captures the smart eleck attitude of this honey badger. I was given a free copy of this book at my request and have voluntarily decided to leave this review.

Honey Badger gets the Chuck Norris treatment and finds love and peace

If you like a good Chuck Norris joke, this might just be the honey badger book for you. If you are in the market for a children’s book to listen to as a twenty to thirty six year old, this one should be a contender. It made me smile at least twice, and that is no small feat.

Amusing and silly

Entertaining children's-style book about an angry antisocial woodland creature. It would have been improved by illustrations but is good enough on its own, especially for free.

The narration was exciting. It sounds like he was having a lot of fun with it which made me do so as well.
