«Au revoir Blaireau» is the children's picture book by Susan Varley, published by Gallimard Jeunesse in paperback (48 pages, in French).
Old badger Blaireau is a dear friend, always ready to help. When he is gone, his friends face their sadness and find comfort in memories and in what they learned from him, in a tender story about friendship, grief and remembrance.
The work was originally published as «Badger's Parting Gifts» in 1984; this 2010 French edition, translated by Marie Saint-Dizier and Raymond Farré, belongs to the collection «L'heure des histoires» (no. 16).
Aimed at children aged 3 to 6, it helps address grief and memory in a close and hopeful way.
Susan Varley is a British illustrator and author of children's picture books. Her best known book is Badger's Parting Gifts, a story which aims to be a gentle introduction to old age and bereavement for young children. She both wrote and illustrated the book, and it was awarded the Mother Goose Award in 1985.
