Kits World | Wind in the Willows | Kenneth Grahame | Book Report @kitsworld | Uploaded October 2020 | Updated October 2024, 59 seconds ago.
The Wind in the Willows is a beloved children's classic, written in 1908 by Scottish novelist Kenneth Grahame. It has been adapted, dramatized, staged, filmed, read, and re-imagined countless times, and remains one of the greatest and most enduring pieces of children's literature ever written.
I grew up with this book and its timeless quartet of anthropomorphic characters; Mole, Ratty, Badger, and Toad, and also attended countless stage productions of the most famous adaptation, Toad of Toad Hall, written by none other than A.A. Milne - creator of Winnie the Pooh. These two versions of Grahame's classic work were an ever-present fixture in my young mind, along with the Narnia chronicles by C.S. Lewis.
If you've never read the original book, and have perhaps only seen one of the, frankly inferior, film versions, then get out immediately and buy yourself a copy! This enchanting, whimsical, and exquisitely well-written masterpiece deserves a place on the bookshelf of anyone who claims to love reading.
