"Would you say the cast of characters is diverse?" Um there's literally a Mole, a Toad, a Badger, a Water Rat, a Sea Otter, and countless stoats and weasels. Not to mention they're all gay.

I was actually able to picture the story by mere reading. Decent plot and a lot of lessons to learn from this book.

Loved this as a child but didn’t quite get the same warm glow from it as an adult. Not really sure why, just didn’t seem to endure in quite the same way as Black Beauty, Ballet Shoes or Carrie’s War still do for me.

The illustrations were the best part — loved Ratty and Mole and Badger but could have done less with MR TOAD
p.14 The rat hummed a tune, and the mole recollected that animal etiquette forbade any sort of comment on the sudden disappearance of one's friends at any moment, for any reason or for no reason whatever.
p. 56 No animal, according to the rules of animal etiquette, is ever expected to do anything strenuous or heroic, or even moderately active, during the off-season of winter.

DID Toad really learn his lesson? I disagree. He's got some tolerant friends, that's for sure.
I audiobooked the Patrick Wymark version. It seemed as if it was an audio recording of a stage play and is 1 hour and 40 minutes long. Unsure if that's the same as the written book?
