About this title

Synopsis

Kenneth Grahame’s charming children’s classic follows the timeless adventures of Ratty, Mole, Badger, and Toad as they romp around the British countryside.

The Wind in the Willows is the enchanting story of four animal friends and their glorious adventures around the Wild Wood and the Thames Riverbank. With themes of unceasing camaraderie, mysticism, morality, and nature, the novel was first published in 1908.

Featuring Arthur Rackham’s magical illustrations, this edition brings Kenneth Grahame’s whimsical story to life. A much-adored artist from the Golden Age of Illustration (1850-1925), Rackham’s delicate illustrations further refine and illuminate Grahame’s masterful storytelling. This edition also features an introduction by author A. A. Milne, most well-known for penning the famous stories of Winnie the Pooh (1928).
