Favorite quote:“The smell of that buttered toast simply spoke to Toad, and with no uncertain voice; talked of warm kitchens, of breakfasts on bright frosty mornings, of cozy parlour firesides on winter evenings, when one's ramble was over and slippered feet were propped on the fender; of the purring of contented cats, and the twitter of sleepy canaries.”
From the publisher: Mole and Rat have a pleasant life by the river, where they talk, boat and while away the days. The wise and private Mr Badger lives sedately in the Wild Woods content in his solitude. Then there’s Mr Toad - wealthy, impulsive and utterly obsessed with motor cars, he’s always getting into scrapes and can’t survive without the help of his friends.
One of the most celebrated works of classic literature for children, The Wind in the Willows remains a timeless tale of, camaraderie, loyalty, and bravery more than 100 years after it’s first publications. With gorgeous color illustrations by the celebrated Arthur Rackham, and an afterword by David Stewart Davies.”
