Publisher Description: "There's nothing - absolutely nothing - half so much worth doing as simply messing around in boats." Fed up of spring-cleaning, the Mole flees his underground dwelling to discover a world full of adventure - from boating on the river with the Water Rat to the forbidden Wild Wood, over which the Badger keeps watch, and Toad's obsession over anything with four wheels and a motor. After Toad commits a series of car-related felonies, he is sentenced to a lengthy imprisonment in a maximum-security dungeon. Can he escape and atone for his reckless behaviour? And can the four friends reclaim Toad Hall, the finest home on the riverside, from the Weasels of the Wild Wood? The Wind in the Willows is a classical tale of adventure and friendship that can be enjoyed by anybody, of any age. This is edition 1 of 4, whose front cover depicts Toad. |
