From the book

A prompt from this edition.

Every chapter of the Commonplace Edition closes with a prompt.

Commonplace

Mole has never seen a river, and Grahame gives it to him as a living thing, “gripping things with a gurgle and leaving them with a laugh.” Circle each word in that paragraph that belongs to a creature or a person. Is the river more like a playmate or a storyteller to Mole?

At the close of Chapter I, The Wind in the Willows.
