The Wind in the Willows

A simple-hearted Mole, a Water Rat with a flair for poetry, and a wealthy, boastful Toad with a passion for motor cars are the principal characters in Grahame's tale. In this animal story concerned with the small creatures of field, woods and river bank, the author shows an enduring depth of feeling for his subjects. Through his deft blending of fantasy and reality, we enter a world, complete in itself, that contains creatures of unique individuality and delineation.
