This twenty-volume set of original stories perfectly captures the joy and excitement of life on the riverbank and is vividly brought to life by the charming illustrations of E.H. Shepard. Follow the friends from Mole's first venture along the riverbank to meeting Badger in the Wild Wood; from Toad's trials and tribulations with motor cars to his triumphant return to Toad Hall.

Kenneth Grahame's The Wind in the Willows is a classic animal adventure that charms and enthrals. This 20-volume classic story collection contains the original illustrations by E.H. Shepard, the man who drew Winnie-the-Pooh. The perfect adventure for children aged 9 and above.
