We had fun creating different voices for each animal character. ( ) A delightful classic! Mole, Badger and Rat (Ratty) are friends of the infamous Toad of Toad Hall. While his friends live the simple country life, Toad lives the life of a millionaire Playboy. one day while taking his friends for a ride in his carriage an automobile spooks the horse and overturns the carriage. Toad then gets a wild hair that he must have an automobile at all costs. Can toads friends save him from his very self before it's too late? This is a great little story that helps tell children not just a tall tale filled with animals but helps them distinguish moral values and presents friendship from several different points of view. The characters are different but mesh so well that most anyone can identify with at least one of them. The story, although not long, is beautifully written in lush detail. Perfect for young readers who are just beginning to learn to read big books. The actual book story is a bit different from the Disney version of Mr. Toad, but they definitely have their similarities. If I remember correctly the underlying story is very much the same. I do think however, watching the Disney version would be a great compliment to the story after reading the book. My son and I thoroughly enjoyed this book. He loved Rat the best as he was so kind-hearted and gentle and willing to take Mole under his wing in so many undertakings. This is a book I think every child should read at least once. And if you are an adult and have not read it I would highly recommend doing so. Mole, Rat, Badger and Toad all enjoy life and friendship in the sleepy world of the riverbank. But when Toad's obsession for automobiles lands him in jeopardy his friends struggle to find a means to help him. An excellent adventure that shows the value of friendship and the ability to change. I loved The Wind in the Willows and I hadn't read it until now. The world of the riverbank seems like a wonderful place and was instantly vivid in my mind. The characters are rich and endearing, even Toad who is too arrogant and self-absorbed for his own good. An excellent read for advanced younger readers. aucune critique | ajouter une critique
Appartient à la série
One of the true classics of English literature, here are the adventures of Mole, Water Rat, Badger, and Toad. Grahame's idyllic world is as fresh now as when they first discovered his enchanting tales, of Ratty sculling his boat on the River, Badger grumpily entertaining his friends in his comfortable underground home, and the exasperating Toad being driven into one tangle after another by his obsession with motor cars.
