Editorial Review:

Product Description:
Kenneth Grahame¹s beloved classic, brought many times to the silver screen, finds its first adaptation into sumptuous comic art. His highly colorful characters, inimitable looniness and love of nature which emanates from every page have appealed to countless generations of readers, old and young.

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.
