Viac o knihe

The book explores the theme of childhood innocence versus adult indifference, depicting a world where children are engaged in a constant struggle against adults who have lost touch with their youthful experiences. This poignant reflection anticipates similar themes in the works of J. M. Barrie and other authors, emphasizing the divide between the carefree nature of childhood and the often harsh realities imposed by adulthood. Through these reminiscences, Grahame captures the essence of this enduring conflict.
