Synopsis
The Wind in the Willows belongs to the classic age of children's classic novels. The charming, exciting, and humorous tales of the riverbank, featuring Ratty, Mole, Badger, and the conceited but irrepressible Toad of Toad Hall, whose passion for motorcars lands him in many scrapes still continue to exert their charm over grown-ups as well as children.
Amazon.com Review
If you ever feel like falling into a beautiful comic-book story--in the same way one falls back into a warm field of grass--reach for Michel Plessix's lush adaptation of Kenneth Grahame's Wind in the Willows. The artwork is an aquarelle, with thin, precise, detailed lines. It's no wonder he received numerous awards for his previous effort, Julien Boisvert, a contemporary take on the Tintin character type. In Wind in the Willows, Plessix breathes life into Mole, Rat, and Toad (of Toad Hall) as they picnic on the riverbank, indulge in Toad's latest fad, and get lost in Wild Wood. The pacing is masterful: each panel lingers just long enough to make you appreciate the simple pleasures of life.
