The Wind in the Willows

Mole leaves his underground home on a bright spring day and discovers the river for the first time. There he meets Rat, whose love of boating opens the door to a new way of life. As the story widens, Mole joins a circle of memorable friends—Otter, Badger, and Toad—whose companionship brings warmth, humor, and trouble in equal measure. Through gentle adventure and vivid language, this classic follows friendship, pride, and the effort to protect the place they all call home.
