Summary
Summary
Listed in the BBC’s Big Read Poll of the UK’s Best-Loved Books
This is a classic fantasy story about four animals who behave like humans. They talk, philosophize, and emphasize friendship but also keep their animal habits. They are Mole, Rat, Toad, and Badger.
There are some adult books read by children and some children’s books read by adults. However, this one appeals to both because it stresses a main theme of doing your best at all times, forgiving others, and setting a goal to make the world a better place.
It is based in an English countryside with wonderful descriptions that make you feel as though you’re there with them. It has a wonderful read-and-listen-aloud feeling with good humor and imagination. We invite you to join us.

Author Bio: Kenneth Grahame
Kenneth Grahame (1859–1932), Scottish-born author, was raised by his grandmother in Berkshire, England, along the banks of the Thames River. He began working at the Bank of England in 1879. As a pastime, he wrote light nonfiction and articles for newspapers. The Wind in the Willows, originally written as letters to his son, established him as a writer of children’s books and had a deep influence on fantasy literature.
