full of enemies too! Weasels and stoats are sinister and they have their own evil designs. Can
Mole and his friends overcome them?

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.
