"The Wind in the Willows" by Kenneth Grahame is a children's novel published in 1908. It follows Mole, Ratty, and Badger as they attempt to help the wealthy but reckless Mr. Toad, who becomes dangerously obsessed with motorcars and lands himself in serious trouble. Their adventures along the riverbank and through the Wild Wood blend friendship, excitement, and humor. Based on bedtime stories Grahame told his son, this tale of anthropomorphized animals has become a beloved classic of British literature. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
