The Wind in the Willows by Kenneth Grahame

Discover Kenneth Grahame’s timeless riverbank classic—a warm, witty tale of friendship, mischief and home. When shy Mole abandons his spring-cleaning and meets the water-loving Rat, he’s drawn into a world of lazy boat trips, picnic hampers and moonlit adventures. Their circle soon widens to include the gruff but good-hearted Badger and the incorrigible Mr. Toad, whose obsession with motorcars leads to jailbreaks, wild chases and a battle to reclaim Toad Hall.

First published in 1908, The Wind in the Willows blends gentle comedy with lyric descriptions of the English countryside and a deep affection for the comforts of hearth and friendship. It’s a book that children enjoy for the adventure and talking animals, and adults return to for its charm, nostalgia and surprisingly sharp satire of fads and folly.

Perfect if you’re looking for:

• A classic read-aloud for families

• A giftable edition of a beloved children’s novel

• A comforting, beautifully told story about loyalty, courage and coming home

Suitable for readers 8+ and for anyone who still believes a picnic by the river can fix almost anything.
