The
characters, created by Kenneth Grahame, are real and alive today with
their human faults and virtues. Mr Toad, no one knows his real name, is a
jovial likable character and although we often despair at his selfish
faults, but he is always forgivable. He is lucky to have such friend as
Badger, sometimes grumpy but always strong and reliable, the urban Ratty
wise and dependable and Mole, who finds joy in all things and loves
everyone. We also meet all the other characters of the river and wild
wood. Finally no story is complete without the villains and here we have
the denizens of the wild wood, the weasels and stoats. |
