The tales of Ratty, Mole, Badger and Toad. When Mole goes boating with the Water Rat instead of spring-cleaning, he discovers a new world. As well as the river and the Wild Wood, there is Toad's craze for fast travel which leads him and his friends on a whirl of trains, barges, gipsy caravans and motor cars and even into battle.

The Rat danced up and down in the road, simply transported with passion. You scroundrels, you highwaymen, you -- you -- road hogs! .... Toad sat straight down in the middle of the dusty road, his legs stretched oat before him, and stared fixedly in the direction of the disappearing motor-cat .... His face wore a placid, satisfied expression, and at intervals he faintly murmured, Poop poop!

This boxed set, including a drawer for special keepsakes, presents the familiar stories of 'The Wind in the Willows' as 20 individual titles, following the pattern first laid out by Grahame as he began to tell the story of the four animal friends to his son. Each volume is cased with a jacket.

This is a collection of four stories: The River Bank, The Open Road, The Wild Wood, and the Adventures of Mr. Toad.

THE WIND IN THE WILLOWS BY KENNETH GRAHAME "The Wind in the Willows" is a story about a group of animal friends living along the banks of a river in England -- the soft-spoken and naive Mole, the strong-willed and determined Water Rat, the grouchy hermit Badger, and the egocentric and spoiled Toad. When Mole ventures out of his burrow and befriends the other animals, he finds himself being swept up in a series of adventures, from a dangerous trek through the weasel-infested Wild Wood to trying to keep Toad's sudden obsession with motor-cars from wrecking his life. And when Toad's reckless ways end up costing him his own home, the four animals find themselves banding together to come to his aid.
