Wind in The Willows Disc 1

[@natashaking1255]

Really helps with my anxiety trying to get to sleep at night, I'm 36 and know your never to old to have a story read to you

[@frankcastellanos]

Feel better, this helps alot with my anxiety, stress.

I found the entire claymation series on KZbin if you haven't seen it you have to treat yourself.

[@siobhanmulligan2699]

I'm 53 and I so understand what you mean ...I also love listening to Beatrix Potter and other stories just something comforting when you snuggle down to sleep ❤️

[@Mebbe308]

Me too. It calms me down imagining such a heavenly little world

[@serdnA323]

This is great info cause I've been dealing with all that and yes his voice is very relaxing , can anyone send me link to the claymation

[@sebuteo]

Interesting to see how many folk - myself included - come to this in search of a balm for stress. I’m 52, at the time of posting this comment, and suffering terribly with anxiety, depression, stress, etc. A charming story, such as this, well read - and Briers has the perfect slightly plummy thespian delivery - can be so soothing. As others have alluded to, there’s also a brilliant animated version, by Cosgrove Hall (who also brought us Dangermouse & Count Duckula!), which is definitely worth watching. Thanks for sharing…

[@arrggghhhh]

I had this disc when I was younger im so happy i can hear the same voice read this 😭😭😭

[@BoDrag]

I urge all ages to listen to all 3 parts of this story... something so comforting and a beautiful break from the madness of the pandemic. Stay safe, sweet humans.

Lovely story narrated beautifully. If you want to know the ideal England, and hierarchy of worth among creatures and how one keeps order in the land and peace among them you must read Wind in the Willows.
