This is a difficult book to review. I didn’t find the story at all engaging, and had difficulty finishing the book - I just didn’t want to pick it up again. I found the character of Toad infuriating, and his continued vacillation between bad behaviour and being contrite didn’t appear to convey any kind of meaningful message. The characters of Mole, Rat and Badger were amiable but shallow. I’m not sure why it is a classic.
My rating: ★★☆☆☆
