"IT TAKES ALL SORTS TO MAKE A WORLD."

Moly, the courteous and altruistic mole, goes out of his quiet underground burrow and reaches the river, tired of his spring cleaning. There, Ratty becomes his friend and accompanies him on his first boat voyage. As these two friends visit the boisterous and pompous Mr.Toad, the proprietor of the Toad Hall, and the compassionate Mr.Badger of the Wild Wood, the fun and adventure begins.

Join the quartet as they journey from one adventure to the next, from Mr. Toad's automobile crashes and imprisonment to the quartet's battle with the weasels and stoats. The Wind in the Willows, one of the most loved stories in children's literature, has been delighting readers of all ages for more than a century. It is still as popular as it has always been.
