HarperCollins is proud to present its range of best-loved, essential classics. ‘There is nothing – absolutely nothing – half so much worth doing as simply messing about in boats.’ One spring day in the idyllic English countryside, Mole, Rat, Toad and Badger embark on a series of escapades.

From Ratty’s exploits on the river to Toad’s passion for motorcars and the invasion of Toad Hall by the stoats and weasels, these woodland friends encounter adventure at every turn. A timeless and celebrated classic, Kenneth Grahame’s The Wind in the Willows has endured for nearly 100 years, and continues to delight readers of all ages.
