The Wind in the Willows by Kenneth Grahame
5.0

This time I listened to the audiobook on Libby just to have the experience. This is one of the most adorable stories. The Mole, the Water Rat, Mr. Badger, and Mr. Toad just live their cute little animal lives with their cute little animal friends. Mr. Toad is a rich maniac who obsesses over and then quickly loses interest in hobbies driving his friends crazy, and getting himself into trouble.

I do have eternal questions though like: Since this world is also inhabited with people and Toad can drive people cars then... are the animals huge? Are the people small? Either one makes me uncomfortable. If after being arrested why can't the police go to his well established home to arrest him again if they were looking for him? Also... Do all the animals talk? Because they are often feasting upon ham, tongue, pheasants, chickens, rabbits... are they eating other sentient critters?

Eternal questions.
