The Wind in the Willows

The Wind in the Willows, the story of four animals and their adventures in the idyllic English countryside, started out as bedtime stories Grahame would tell his son. He eventually started writing them down, and finally produced this much-loved childrens classic. In continuous print since 1908, The Wind in the Willows has been illustrated countless times and adapted to stage, radio, and screen.

Kenneth Grahame (1859-1932) was a Scottish-born British writer. He is best remembered for The Wind in the Willows, a classic of children's literature shaped by friendship, countryside, humor, and adventure.
