The Wind In The Willows (Readings Classics)

Description

Mole had no idea that the Wild Wood would be a place full of friends. Well, not many but a few at least who he could frolic with! One day, he beats his fear to hop out of his burrow and, lo and behold, he is among the best of friends: Rat, Badger and Mr Toad. But, then, the Wild Wood is full of enemies too! Weasels and stoats are sinister and they have their own evil designs. Can Mole and his friends overcome them? Kenneth Grahame told these fantastic stories to his son in his childhood. Later, he compiled them in The Wind in the Willows for all the children in the world who like to read :)

About the Author

Kenneth Grahame was a Scottish writer of children’s literature. He was born in Edinburgh, Scotland, in 1859. He wanted to study at Oxford University, but he couldn’t afford it due to his financial situation. He had to take up banking as a profession to address his financial woes but he kept on honing his writing skills and became a prolific writer for children. During his youth, he wrote short stories for periodicals in London. After a ten-year long period of struggle, he published his triumphant book The Wind in the Willows in 1908, now one of the classics of children’s literature. His fame as a writer of children’s literature grew instantly after this book. The popularity of the book also caused his previously neglected works to be collected and published. The Wind in the Willows and his other work The Reluctant Dragon were later adapted for film and stage. Grahame died in Pangbourne, in 1932.
