With its humor, tenderness, suspense, and happy ending...[ Toad Triumphant is] a pleasant story and a good read. -- The Christian Science Monitor
The old characters pop back to life as you begin reading. -- The New York Times
Faithful to the original...Festive...A winsome winner. -- The Chicago Tribune
The Willows in Winter transports us back to the familiar rivery world almost as authoritatively-and entertaingly-as a sequel by Grahame himself. -- Atlanta Journal Constitution
Patrick Benson's cross-hatched illustrations seem to have been lovingly guided by the hand of Ernest Shepard, whose 1931 drawings of The Wind in the Willows continue to transport young readers to meadow, river bank, and wild wood. -- Cleveland Plain Dealer
