The Wind in the Willows

By: Kenneth Grahame

Narrated by: Martin Jarvis

First published in 1908, The Wind in the Willows belongs to a golden age of children’s book. These charming tales of the riverbank, describing the adventures of Ratty, Mole, Badger, and their irrepressible but conceited friend, Toad of Toad Hall, have become classics loved as much, perhaps, by adults as by children.

Love it!

What did you love best about The Wind in the Willows?

Love the narration and character voices - especially Toad's! This is one my favorite stories and was thrilled with its reading. Next time I will make sure to download the unabridged version so I can enjoy the whole story!

Narrator”s Voice is perfect

He is the best Narrator for this book. His distinguished English accent goes perfectly with story and helps you to imagine the characters the way.

Great Book

I recommend this book to any age group. This story will defiantly make you think differently about any of the animals.

loved the book

I very much enjoyed the story of mole, rat and ,badger but the last parts of the book involves toad more than anything it is quite the adventure he had but I would just soon hear more about the simple creatures and their life on the river.

Well done!

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

This is one of the best books written for both adults and children. The prose are rich and poetic. The characters engaging and the adventure pure fun. Martin Jarvis' voice makes this story a pleasure to listen to again and again. It is only too bad it is an abridged version. Although well edited I wanted to hear it in it's entirety.
