About this book
Kenneth Grahame's The Wind in the Willows follows the riverbank adventures and friendships of Mole, Rat, Toad, and Badger. Suited to children and families reading aloud, it appeals to readers who enjoy classic animal fantasy.
One correction: this title was first published in 1908, not 1995. You may want to fix that field in the catalogue record.
Kenneth Grahame
Kenneth Grahame was a Scottish writer. He is best remembered for the classic of children's literature The Wind in the Willows (1908). Born in Scotland, he spent most of his childhood with his grandmother in England, following the death of his mother and his father's inability to look after the children. After attending St Edward's School in Oxford, his ambition to attend university was thwarted and he joined the Bank of England, where he had a successful career. Before writing The Wind in the Willows, he published three other books: Pagan Papers (1893), The Golden Age (1895), and Dream Days (1898).
