“The Wind in the Willows” never makes it clear if the animal characters are human-sized, or regular-animal-sized.

Most animated adaptations opt for the former interpretation. But Paul Bransom, who illustrated a 1913 edition of the book, subscribed to the later; resulting in such hilarious images as:

an itty-bitty Rat leading a comparatively kaiju-sized horse down the road,

and a completely ordinary Toad being thrown into a jail cell.

This raises an important question.

Was Mr. Toad arrested for stealing a toy car?

Or did a tiny little toad somehow manage to steal a vehicle designed for humans?

The entire book, with Paul Bransom’s illustrations, can be read right here:
