The Wind in the Willows

Mole leaves his spring cleaning behind and discovers the River, where he finds a lifelong friend in the kindly Water Rat. Together with wise old Badger they try to keep the boastful, motor-car-mad Mr. Toad of Toad Hall out of trouble, through picnics and wild woods, a daring prison escape, and a battle to win back Toad Hall from the weasels. Kenneth Grahame's gentle 1908 classic of friendship and the English countryside,
