Very worn and dog eared (as any good book should be)and I think it is in my bookshelf somewhere. It was one of the books I read to my kids when they were younger. We are a bookworm family and Sunday afternoon's are often spent with the family sprawled in the lounge reading. There are a lot of fights as I read the fastest and will often "borrow" my sons books while they are still busy with them :-)Muscadecipiohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05745331111735552883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9200808769555430311.post-14241198353079284432010-01-13T08:24:58.106+11:002010-01-13T08:24:58.106+11:00Thanks Andrew, yes it is a wonderful book.

Keep reading constantly to your little baby and he'll be enjoying Wind in the Willows before you know it (you can always start at about age 4 with one of the illustrated or abridged versions).<br /><br />Best wishes,<br />TrevorTrevor Cairneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10743409298855125040noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9200808769555430311.post-5313287099494774702010-01-12T23:03:08.904+11:002010-01-12T23:03:08.904+11:00Thanks for this post.

But I can't wait for him to grow up so I can introduce him to the wonderful world of mole, ratty, badger and of course Toad.Andrewhttp://www.dailyvowelmovements.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.com
