Raves and Reviews
"Dennison’s account is sympathetic but honest, psychologically acute and insightful. It is, withal, a sad story but one that Dennison tells extremely well to his and Grahame’s credit."
– Booklist
"Matthew Dennison’s short, gripping and consistently surprising biography of Kenneth Grahame ably explains how a stuffy bank clerk produced arguably the greatest children’s book ever written, The Wind in the Willows. Grahame’s was a life of tragedy from its beginning and a consequent retreat into private fantasy proved both his imaginative salvation and, thanks to his unfortunate son, ‘Mouse,’ the greatest loss of all."
– The Guardian (UK)
"This sympathetic study will attract biography lovers and, of course, fans of Grahame’s enduring classic."
– Library Journal
