Kenneth Grahame

‘Every brush-stroke of his beautifully-conceived illustrations is a tribute to what is going on in the story. There are grand double-page panoramic spreads at the start of each chapter, there are full-page plates, and there are a host of vignettes in the text which perfectly catch the atmosphere of the story as it progresses. And it is the whole story too.’
Books For Keeps

Kenneth Grahame’s classic tale was first published in 1908, and children and adults alike fell in love with timid Mole, and friendly Water Rat, the erudite Badger and of course the irrepressible Toad. This magnificent edition was published to commemorate the centenary of the first publication of this spellbinding story, so that fans of all ages can relive this heart-warming tale of friendship.
