“The story’s message is loud and clear, or else understandable to be learned for the first time, especially when McMillan spells it out for the reader at the end. Using animals as the main characters instead of humans doesn’t lessen the moral shared while making it understood as not directed toward any specific reader but more generalized for a wider audience.”

I enjoyed reading “Badger and Turtle Face the Storm,” I thought it was a good story because of how the two friends worked together in the end and everything worked out. I could understand during the story when the friends weren’t getting along and what was wrong, and then I understood how they made things better among themselves. Kids of any age will enjoy this story because everyone gets scared and argues, and it is good for them to know how to feel better.
