About the book

Kenneth Grahame's The Wind in the Willows follows Mole, Rat, Badger and the irrepressible Mr Toad through a series of adventures in the English countryside. While Mole and Rat enjoy the pleasures of riverbank life, Toad's obsession with motorcars repeatedly lands him in trouble and eventually threatens Toad Hall itself. Warm, humorous and beautifully evocative of nature and friendship, the book has become one of the most enduring classics of English children's literature.
