For more than a century, The Wind in the Willows and its endearing protagonists--Mole, Mr. Toad, Badger, and Ratty--have enchanted children of all ages. Whether the four friends are setting forth on an exciting adventure, engaging in a comic caper, or simply relaxing by the River Thames, their stories are among the most charming in all English literature.
“It takes all sorts to make a world.” tired of his Spring cleaning, moly, the polite and altruistic Mole, steps out of his secluded home under the ground and reaches the river. There he meets and soon becomes firm friends with Ratty, Badger, and car-crazy Mr Toad. He befriends ratty, who takes him on his first boat ride. Life on the river couldn't be better, until Toad's reckless driving lands him in jail. When the nasty weasels and stoats decide to take over Toad Hall, it's up to the friends to save the day.
‘Believe me, My young friend, there is nothing—absolute nothing—half so much worth doing as simply messing about in boats.’ Fun and adventure begins as the two friends visit the Jovial and boastful Mr. Toad, the owner of the Toad hall, and the kindly Mr. Badger of the wild wood. From Mr. Toad’s motor car crashes and imprisonment to the quartet’s battle with the weasels and stoats, join them as they move from one escapade to the other. One of the best-loved tales in children’s literature, The wind in the Willows has been entertaining readers of all ages for more than a century now. It continues to remain as celebrated as ever.
One of the greatest animal stories ever written, Kenneth Grahame's classic novel is guaranteed to delight all young readers aged 8 and up. This edition also contains Arthur Rackham's famous illustrations, which bring the world of the river bank to life.
