A review by lilith89ibz
The Wind in the Willows: The Centennial Anniversary Edition by Kenneth Grahame

3.0

I was only familiar with the illustrations of this book, so the fact that Mr. Toad was a narcissistic spoiled jerk with ADHD did come as a bit of a surprise.

I would have liked this a lot better if it had given me some reason why some animals were just animals and some were people. Not sure why a toad is physically bigger than a horse and able to ride one, but I lost it when his fingers got wet and… wrinkled. I’m all for whimsy but that’s just silly. I’ll stick with Fantastic Mr. Fox.
