The Wind in the Willows

Gentle British Bedtime Story
Published in 1907, The Wind in the Willows is decidedly British literature. Before even getting to the exclamation of “Stuff and nonsense!", there is some mild swearing and sophisticated vocabulary for a children’s book.
The book focuses on a cast of animals and their adventures: Mole, Rat, Badger, and (my personal favorite) Toad.
The world is cozy, and I found myself breaking out randomly in smile while reading this.
Although this comfort read is enjoyable, the paragraphs are too long. I had to dust off my trusty dyslexic bookmark which has a transparent yellow pane which isolates one line of text at a time. Therefore, my suggestion would be to listen to the audiobook especially if you want to listen to something soothing.
