Description

Experience the classic tale of The Wind in the Willows as you’ve never heard it before.

Featuring original music and songs by Rosabella Gregory and sound effects captured on location, put your headphones on, sit back and lose yourself in the British countryside.

Delightful

This is a lovely and entertaining story - sweet and funny and well performed. Not just for children.

Bland, Unnecessary Update to a Classic

While I appreciate and support our society’s agonizingly slow crawl towards respect and tolerance, and I realize full well there will be some missteps and failed experiments along the way, I fail to see the point of taking this early 20th century classic of children’s literature and changing all the gender roles from male to female. (I’m willing to admit that I may not be the target audience, so if this particular treatment makes the book more accessible to a audience who might otherwise find little relatable in a text with a paucity of female characters, perhaps it’s a worthwhile endeavour.) More to the point: I’m afraid the voice narration simply wasn’t that interesting. If you know the original text well, you will likely find this version jarring. Far better narrations of the original text already exist.

Really good spin on an old tale

I really loved this take on Wind in the Willows. The remake with an all-female cast made it really fun to listen to. This is the first time I’ve ever been able to make it all the way through the story. I really can’t stand Toad (the character, not the actor) so her parts were hard to listen too, but somehow still more tolerable in this version.

spirited book for children

Even as an adult it made me laugh. A beautiful remastering of a classic!

Not the original story

Yeah there’s a reason why this one is included with your prime membership. It’s the story of Lady Toad… Not the story of Mr. Toad. Why they decided to change all the characters to female, I have no idea. It’s disrespectful to the author, who, if he had wanted to make all the characters female, would have written them thus.

Dina, why did you do that?!

Don't mess with the classics, Dina Gregory.
The all-female version of The Wind of the Willows is a flop. The work lost its rhythm and charm. Don't waste your time listening to this.

They changed the genders of the characters

This story, in the book I have in my hands, has the main characters as males, but the audio recording has changed the genders and thus much of the story is being simply changed and made-up. Why would anyone do this?

Well read but misread missing the point of the satire.

All characters have been changed well read but the original text points fun at the male characters that represent contextual male stereotypes. By changing the genders to female the reader misses the point of the satire.

So much lost.

There is an incredible amount of content, story line and inferences lost while attempting to change the genders of the main characters. It just is not the same story, which I suppose is kind of the point, but take my advice and stick to the original. I just can't see why this version was needed.

OMG! I'm in LOVE!!

IMHO, this version is better than the original. The characters are vivid and lovable (even Lady Toad, lol!), and the narration is SUPERB. I laughed, cried, and just lost myself in this story. I will recommend it to the high heavens and listen more than once. I've listened to hundreds of audiobooks on Audible, and this is in my #1 spot right now. Yes, it's THAT GOOD! Kudos ladies, and more please!

What a fun, new twist on an old classic! My children and I enjoyed this during during Christmas school break.

A new take on an old story.

My family enjoys this retelling so much! Don't expect it to be the original, relax and enjoy a new story. And, if your going to come at it with a defensive attitude and consider it an affront to manhood, just stay away and let the open minded listeners enjoy the fun.

Surprisingly Delightful

Surprisingly delightful! Have never read this classic so I decided to give it a try.
At first I was disappointed to realize all the characters had been changed to female. But honestly, it made the story so cute and fresh. I absolutely loved the readers who brought this beloved classic to life. The multiple charming British voices truly captured the characters which Grahame has written to be complex and delightful. Such rich vocabulary and expression. Good for language development/writing for children.

Um. Ok.

I was, admittedly, disappointed, because o have never read the original story and was excited to find it for free! But then… it wasn’t the original story.

However, the acting is charming and voices are pleasant. At this point, I still haven’t read the original and si have no point of comparison, but this story is adorable. Listened with my 6yo girl who rather emphatically told me that the girl story was very much better. (She’s only watched the movie.) Sí i guess there’s that, as well.

I don’t give it very high marks, for toying with a classic and using the same name. I’ve seen too many classics ruined because of this unfortunate practice. (I’m looking at you, Cheaper by the Dozen movie.)
