Where does The Wind in the Willows rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

Top 10 for sure, all core characters have depth, one I personally identified with, and overall a enjoyable story

What did you like best about this story?

The part about Toad and how his life snowballed after just thinking about looking at that automobile. With out spoiling anything, the peaks and valleys of his adventure was the best part. So sure of himself yet so close to self destruction

Did you have an emotional reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

Mostly laugh with parts of heartwarming compassion

Any additional comments?

I understand why this is a high ranked classic on so many lists. Character depth with out almost any backstory and given as bits and pieces of the story is fantastic. Really enjoyed how you could visualize each character and predict how they would react to each situation.

It was easy to give this book and Michael Hordern a clean 5/5!

Epic tale about adventures animals!

This was my favourite book as a child. There was always something that touched me deeply. I would always cry at Dulce Domum, I could feel the mole"a homesickness so deeply. I'm no stranger to homesickness as an adult and Dulce Domum still makes me cry. It's such a wonderful story of friendship and of a whole new world opening up for the mole. It's the book I've given to nieces, nephews and god children and the only children's book I can still read with pleasure. This is a wonderful performance.
