內容簡介
Please note the pages on this book have been produced with bevelled or rough edge to create an old style look. The publisher has deliberately chosen to produce the book this way. The coveted Penguin Threads series continues with three more enchanting, beautifully sewn covers by a talented visual artist. Bringing together traditional handicraft with cutting-edge book design, the Penguin Threads series has already created a huge buzz among the art and book-collecting communities. This latest set features three beloved children's books with cover art by painter and illustrator Rachell Sumpter, who brings a unique, whimsical sensibility to the Threads. With vivid colors and ambitiously intricate details, these additions to our innovative series commissioned by award-winning creative director Paul Buckley are rich works of art to be cherished and shared.
作者簡介
Kenneth Grahame (1859–1932) was born in Edinburgh, Scotland, and raised in Berkshire by his grandmother, whose house and garden would inspire the backdrop of his most famous work. His books of stories for children include Pagan Papers, The Golden Age, and Dream Days.
精彩書評
"[Mole] thought his happiness was complete when, as he meandered aimlessly along, suddenly he stood by the edge of a full-fed river. Never in his life had he seen a river before--this sleek, sinuous, full-bodied animal, chasing and chuckling, gripping things with a gurgle and leaving them with a laugh, to fling itself on fresh playmates that shook themselves free, and were caught and held again." Such is the cautious, agreeable Mole's first introduction to the river and the Life Adventurous. Emerging from his home at Mole End one spring, his whole world changes when he hooks up with the good-natured, boat-loving Water Rat, the boastful Toad of Toad Hall, the society- hating Badger who lives in the frightening Wild Wood, and countless other mostly well-meaning creatures. Michael Hague's exquisitely detailed, breathtaking color illustrations on almost every generous spread--along with Kenneth Grahame's elegant, delightfully old-fashioned characterizations of the animals--make this book a wonderful read-aloud. Grahame's The Wind in the Willows has enchanted readers for four generations, and this lavishly illustrated gift edition is perhaps the finest around.

This reviews refers to ISBN 0805002138. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title. Despite the attractive large format of this pleasant complete edition of the 1908 classic, the illustrations seem bland in comparison with either the lively wit of Ernest Shepard's drawings or Rackham's elegant and endearing detail. Percy does evoke the serenity of the English landscape and cozy interiors in his carefully designed full-color plates, while the characters come affably to life in his detailed drawings. There's a more contemporary flavor here, too, though costume and settings are appropriately Edwardian. Not a primary purchase, but a nice supplementary interpretation.

毫無疑問這是一本好書,京東送貨也很快,我很滿意!開捲有益,讀書好處多,陶冶情操,修身養性,還會再來的哦。一本書有一個故事,一個故事敘述一段人生,一段人生摺射一個世界。“讀萬捲書,行萬裏路”說的正是這個道理。讀詩使人高雅,讀史使人明智。讀每一本書都會有不同的收獲。“懸梁刺股”、“螢窗映雪”,自古以來,勤奮讀書,提升自我是每一個人的畢生追求。讀書是一種最優雅的素質,能塑造人的精神,升華人的思想。

很小的時候看過這本書,印象都不深刻瞭,但是當時不知道名字,也看的是漢語版本 ,所以想要看看原汁原味的。看瞭個開頭,不錯滴。

當鼴鼠匆匆忙忙地走著,渴望重新迴到傢,置身於他熟悉和喜歡的東西中時,他清楚地看到,他是一隻屬於耕地和樹籬的動物,跟犁溝、常到的牧場、晚上閑蕩的小路、經過栽培的園地不可分離地聯係在一起。大自然的嚴酷條件或者現實矛盾衝突,全都讓彆人去受吧;他必須聰明點,必須守在他自己快活的圈子裏,那裏的趣事夠他受用一輩子的。
