The tales relate the adventures of several animal friends and neighbours in the English countryside—primarily Mole, Rat, Toad, and Badger. Although the animals converse, philosophize, and behave like humans, each creature also retains its distinctive animal habits. “The smell of that buttered toast simply spoke to Toad, and with no uncertain voice; talked of warm kitchens, of breakfasts on bright frosty mornings, of cozy parlour firesides on winter evenings, when one's ramble was over and slippered feet were propped on the fender; of the purring of contented cats, and the twitter of sleepy canaries.” A gem among a bounty of stunning vintage books and classic novels on our online used bookstore.","brand":"Country House Library","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55425849000315,"sku":"10380380","price":14.69,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2458\/8207\/files\/orig_487605_jpg.jpg?v=1747233731","url":"https:\/\/countryhouselibrary.co.uk\/products\/the-wind-in-the-willows-by-kenneth-grahame-methuen-1953","provider":"Country House Library ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
