What a sweet, comforting book. And how absolutely unreformed Toad is! Never have I come across a character who is so slow to learn his lesson! But I really loved Rat, Mole, and Badger. And it’s such a curious world they’ve built (how exactly do the humans fit in?)

I would love to have the same lazy sort of living and solid hospitality as those fine animals.

I even enjoyed the two odd chapters (the seductive sea rat and the mysterious appearance of Pan)

A very cozy read ♡
