In the enchanting world of a river bend, where the branches of willows whisper, live loyal friends: inquisitive Mr. Mole, sensible Uncle Rat (a water rat), stern but kind Badger, and the impulsive millionaire, Mr. Toad (a toad).
When the restless Mr. Toad—obsessed with speed—smashes car after car and lands himself in trouble, his friends rush to help him. They face thrilling chases along country roads, wanderings in the Deep Wood, dangerous run-ins with sly polecats and weasels—and, finally, an assault on Toad’s estate, which has been seized by uninvited guests.
The Wind in the Willows is a warm and wise tale about friendship, loyalty, and home. A book that captured readers’ hearts more than a century ago will bring you the charm of the English countryside and faith that true friends will never leave you in trouble.
