Wind in the Willows by Kenneth Grahame

3.0

---

I was on holiday in a little cottage and this was on the shelf so I thought, why not? Never read the books but was familiar (or so I thought) with the story. I decided to read with an audiobook which helped speed up the process. And there were some lovely illustrations in the editor I read. Now for the book: it’s if it’s time shall we say. There are a few random events that don’t seem to make much sense and there isn’t much explanation for the reader other than to accept it. Toad is “an ass” for a lot of it but there were some likeable characters. I liked the book and I’m pleased I’ve given it a go but I doubt I’d reach for it again.
