Description
I decided to try and see what famous stories would look in my style, and here is the first one of them all. It's Kenneth Grahame's famous novel''The Wind the Willows'' One of my favourite stories growing up now there has been several adoptations of this story including the Disney Version,
but the popular one of them in films is the stop motion series Tv series which I grew up with in my childhood
So now here's my version of The Wind in the Willows with Toad, Mole, Ratty and Badger in my style including like I said the story
Hope you like it

Awesome drawing featuring the characters from this classic story! When I was a kid, some friends of ours showed us a very well done stop motion animation of it. I actually liked it more than the Disney version. It was more according to the book.
Anyway, once again, you did a wonderful job! You are great at drawing vehicles

Thank you very much Becky
The Stop Motion version has a lot more charm to it and wonderful songs. I like the Disney version, it has a Animaniacs feeling to it

A very lively and inviting portrayal of this classic old story! I best remember Disney's animated spin on things, but that doesn't hinder the ability to instantly recognize Grahame's goofy lot. Well done!

Oh oh! Toad at it again!
I have to say, I haven't read the book. But I have seen some adaptations in TV and VHS. I remember watching Burbank film version www.youtube.com/watch?v=NxAjy5β¦ and The Cosgrove hallΒ serieΒ one.
Great work, James!

Yeah 
Thanks Lars!
I have never seen the Burbank film version, The only cartoon from Burbank film I've only seen is Peter Pan. The only versions of Wind in the Willows I have seen is the TV stop motion series and the Disney version

Yes, Burbank film's Peter Pan did I also see. AndΒ it was the first version of Peter Pan I ever saw. But I later also saw the Disney ones.
I guess back then my mother rent the VHS's ofΒ them, and thought it was Disney. Silly mother!
You're welcome, James!
