Amazon.com Review:
"[Mole] thought his happiness was complete when, as he meandered aimlessly along, suddenly he stood by the edge of a full-fed river. Never in his life had he seen a river before--this sleek, sinuous, full-bodied animal, chasing and chuckling, gripping things with a gurgle and leaving them with a laugh, to fling itself on fresh playmates that shook themselves free, and were caught and held again." Such is the cautious, agreeable Mole's first introduction to the river and the Life Adventurous. Emerging from his home at Mole End one spring, his whole world changes when he hooks up with the good-natured, boat-loving Water Rat, the boastful Toad of Toad Hall, the society- hating Badger who lives in the frightening Wild Wood, and countless other mostly well-meaning creatures. Michael Hague's exquisitely detailed, breathtaking color illustrations on almost every generous spread--along with Kenneth Grahame's elegant, delightfully old-fashioned characterizations of the animals--make this book a wonderful read-aloud. Grahame's The Wind in the Willows has enchanted readers for four generations, and this lavishly illustrated gift edition is perhaps the finest around. (All ages, or 9 to 12)

- Dull
I was so excited to finally read this classic, and I feel terrible that I found it so dull. I read lots of book to my son I homeschool. We read all levels, but he didn't like it either. I didn't read the whole book. I got about half way until I just couldnt' read it any longer. But, so many people love this book, so if you have never read it go check it out at the library before buying it. I think people either love it or hate it.

- Complex
This was a very interesting book. As I read it I felt like Toad was a `Prodigal Son', who came back only far enough to receive acceptance, then returned to his bad habits till he was in trouble again.
It reminded me much of myself, playing at being Christian before really giving Christ all areas of my life. Like Toad I would repent, but then not really change.
Rat was wise and resourceful, Mole was tender and caring and awe-full like a child yet also very wise. Badger is ... Read More

- fun
This is a fun book, and another for our list of books that we will read often. When we read the chapter on the The Piper at the Gates of Dawn, we were caught up in the
emotion of the quietness and stillness of the event being written about. The book is well written and fun.
Rating: - Audio Version read by Flo Gibson
I believe that a narrator can really make an audio book and Flo Gibson does such a fabulous job of the voices of the characters in "The Wind in the Willows". This is one of my son's all time favorite books and audio books. I highly recommend it.

- THE WIND IN THE WILLOWS by Kenneth Grahame
The Wind in the Willows is a children's novel by Kenneth Grahame, and was originally published in 1908. It concerns the doings of four anthropomorphized creatures: Mole, Rat, Badger and Toad. Most of the book involves their day-to-day activities, and there is very little plot to speak of.
The book is quite often tediously slow. No character other than Toad does anything remotely interesting or anything approximating an "adventure". Most of the book involves Mole and Rat puttering around ... Read More
