What Parents Need to Know
About The Wind in the Willows: The Complete First Series
Parents need to know that kids used to computer animation of Pixar and its ilk may find the claymation a bit low-tech. But these engaging, gentle stories of friendship are well worth sharing with your kids. The animation is actually quite wonderful. The figures of the animals are very expressive, and the narration perfectly suits the characters.

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about the old-fashioned setting and the human characteristics of the animals, and re-visit, or read for the first time, Grahame's classic book. Families can also discuss the difference between claymation and computer animation. Can you think of any recent, popular TV shows or movies that use claymation, instead of computer animation?
