    When I was a kid back in 1994/95, my mother used to put this VHS tape on when I was sick... It would always calm me down, soothe me enough to sleep and also keep me sat still completely mesmerized by the story....
    Today, 2023, I'm 31.
    Struck with a stomach bug,
    I've found this video..
    Suddenly, a wave of calm...
    Proof that there really is magic in storytelling

    0:28 started crying when I heard that nostalgic oboe melody.
    It’s 2023, I’m 35, and this was one of my favorite movies as a child. Now, I’m laying in bed with my 4 year old, laughing at Toad’s antics and reveling in the musicality and witty dialogue.
    Time steals many things, but the love and memories live on, even in the simplest of movies.
    If you’re reading this, sit with the beauty of the moment and enjoy this classic.

    I"m 73. My mom used the original story as a bedtime read when I was a toddler circa 1950. I grew up reading and hearing it; I probably learned some reading skills from those evening 'reads'. When my mom was dying from MRSA, we took turns reading this story to her as she lay seemingly unconscious. I suspect she heard and knew... Especially, the Piper at the gates of dawn.

      I'm 65, my aunty bought me this book when I was too little to read it. I still have the book she gave me. Different chapters in this book have sustained me through some very difficult times. Also I often find the people I can trust most remind me of Badger, Ratty or Mole. That has helped me like a kind of moral compass, nevertheless, we all need a bit of Toad sometimes!!!

I have it paused right now to share my excitement at not only seeing a movie I hadn't seen since childhood, but also get to see it's sequel for the first time! I feel like a kid again omg.

Just now in 2020 I've found this video and now know that there's a Willows In Winter. I knew there was a book with the same title but never a movie sequel. Anyone else have a similar experience? And it could be nostalgia talking but I like the animation in the first one better. This one seems..."updated"?

    I spent long hours alone as a child reading Wind In The Willows especially on long summer afternoons. Then when the movies came out well what a delight for me..so many memories of my mind getting lost in these stories..taking adventures without having to leave home or the yard but in my mind thousands of miles away far away in The Willows🌳🏞

    I didn't know there was a sequel :D This was our favorite movie with my father when I was 6. We kept watching it whenever we had father&daughter time. We still make jokes of it and I still keep the cd :) The music, atmosphere, you just wanna cuddle this movie. I don't know why, everything was better then. Everything was warmer. I wish we could feel the same again :') Thanks for sharing it.

    I love this! I also discovered a podcast, "The Sleepy Bookshelf" that has several episodes of "The Wind in the Willows" The narrators voice is great. Her rendition of Mr. Toad's songs about himself were stuck in my head for days. It's both entertaining and helps me sleep.

    This film, on VHS, was basically my entire childhood until we got a DVD player. I stopped watching my VHS tapes after that. And I haven't seen this film since I was about 4/5. And I'm turning 16 tomorrow and just last week I started watching the Young Ones. And Rik Mayall is one of the main actors in that. And I saw that he plays Mr Toad in this and....it makes so much sense now. His voice didn't change for this role. And now my childhood actually links to my personality now and I'm over excited about it

    I’m 41 and the wind in the willows books played a big part of my childhood. I would read for hours and pretend that I lived on the riverbank as well. Over the years I’ve watched many adaptations of the willows the tv series when I was a kid the films and the musicals and every time I’m transported back to my childhood sitting on my bed reading the books and wishing I lived on the riverbank
