The song "Power Flower" on Stevie Wonder's 1979 album Stevie Wonder's Journey Through "The Secret Life of Plants", co-written with Michael Sembello, mentions "the piper at the gates of dawning". I have to say he does justice to the dining hall mess that the weasels and stoats have created. It looks like a Peter Spier mess.

The Scotsman [30] and Oban Times [31] suggested The Wind in the Willows was inspired by the Crinan Canal, because Grahame spent some of his childhood in Ardrishaig. Shepard was born in St John's Wood, London, son of Henry Donkin Shepard, an architect, and Jessie Harriet, daughter of watercolour painter William Lee. [3] Having shown some promise in drawing at St Paul's School, in 1897 he enrolled in the Heatherley School of Fine Art in Chelsea. [4] After a productive year there, he attended the Royal Academy Schools, winning a Landseer scholarship in 1899 and a British Institute prize in 1900. [5] There he met Florence Eleanor Chaplin, whom he married in 1904. [6] By 1906 Shepard had become a successful illustrator, having produced work for illustrated editions of Aesop's Fables, David Copperfield, and Tom Brown's Schooldays, while at the same time working as an illustrator on the staff of Punch. [7] The couple bought a house in London, but in 1905 moved to Shamley Green, near Guildford. I like the landscapes, especially the way the light falls between the trees along the river. Toad Hall’s exterior is imposing. The moonlit scene on the cover is stunning, but the caravan is awful, just a bloated yellow object.The Wind in the Willows, a 1983 animated TV film version with stop-motion animated puppets, produced by Cosgrove Hall Films. I’m reevaluating my feelings about Helen Ward. There is really only one picture that turns me off – it’s the load of police and pursuers in the second train chasing after Toad. It’s the one that is too stylized for my taste. The song " Sweet Amarillo", written by Donna Weiss and performed by Old Crow Medicine Show, mentions The Wind in the Willows.

Bransom's characters are true renderings of real animals, and are mostly only clothed in their own fur.
