The Wind in the Willows
Gr. 3-5, younger for reading aloud. Previously published in two volumes,The River Bank(1996) andThe Adventures of Mr. Toad(1998), Moore's intelligently abridged edition of Grahame's classic is now available in a single large-format volume. The relatively large print, the wide margins, and the beautiful ink-and-pastel artwork on nearly every page make this version a good choice for middle-grade independent readers put off by the original or for parents in search of a pleasing edition to read aloud to younger children.Carolyn PhelanCopyright © American Library Association.
