A gorgeous flapped paperback edition of the beloved English classic featuring Ratty, Mole, Badger and Toad.

Spring is moving in the air above and Mole can no longer resist its song. Leaving his quiet home behind, he discovers a magnificent new world along the riverbank. Here he befriends loyal, steadfast Rat, wise Badger and good-natured yet impulsive Toad.

Together under the glistening sun, they enjoy all that the countryside has to offer. Boating on the river, picnics in the afternoon and even a caravan trip on the open road. But trouble starts to brew when Toad falls under the spell of a dangerous motorcar obsession. And as his friends try to save him, even darker problems creep from the shadowy Wild Wood and the unknowable Wide World beyond...

Part of the new Pushkin Children's Classics series of thrilling, magical and inspiring stories from around the world, which young readers will return to time and again.

Kenneth Grahame (1859-1932) was born in Scotland but raised in England by his grandmother. He worked at the Bank of England for thirty years, writing books in his spare time. The Wind in the Willows, his masterpiece, began as a series of stories told to his son, either at bedtime or in letters sent home from Grahame's solitary boating holidays.
