The timeless story of Toad, Rat, Mole, and Badger has delighted readers of all ages for more than eighty years. Friendly Rat, mild-mannered Mole, wise Badger, and kind—but conceited—Toad all live on the banks of the Thames. While Mole and Rat are content to go out in a row boat or travel the roads in a caravan, Toad prefers the excitement of motor cars. He’s already wrecked seven! While his friends try to keep him out of trouble, his passion for cars eventually results in his being caught and kept prisoner in the remotest dungeon of the best-guarded castle in all the land. Somehow, he has to escape and get home but what will he find when he gets there? The Wind in the Willows is a book for those “who keep the spirit of youth alive in them; of life, sunshine, running water, woodlands, dusty roads, winter firesides.” So, wrote Kenneth Grahame of his timeless tale of Rat, Mole, Badger, and Toad.

Book excerpt: Sequel to "The Golden Age" "In 'Dream Days' we are conscious of the same magic touch which us in 'The Golden Age.' There is magic in all the sketches, but it is perhaps in 'Its Walls Were as of Jasper' - the beautiful title of a beautiful story - that Mr. Grahame stands confessed as a veritable wizard." -Literature "Happy Mr. Grahame who can weave romances so well." -Daily Telegraph "Nobody with a sense of what is rare and humorous and true can afford to miss this volume." -Outlook "Here we must leave this charming little work. We have said nothing of Mr. Grahame's sympathy with child nature, his penetrating and kindly humor; but that is because we have said these things before. They are commonplaces." -Academy "No writer has more of the secret of childhood than Mr. Kenneth Grahame. Those who remember his 'Golden Age' will need no urging to possess themselves of 'Dream Days.'" -Westminster Gazette "Well, we are more than a trifle dull, nous autres and we should be grateful to Mr. Kenneth Grahame for throwing in a story or two of his own." -Daily Telegraph "In 'Dream Days' Mr. Grahame is at his best." -Critic "There are many writers who are haunting the doors of the nursery, and the corners of school playgrounds, with more or less success; there is none who is doing, or who is able as far as we know to do, just what Mr. Kenneth Grahame does." -Speaker "The book is, from the artistic point of view, of such importance to all true lovers of literature, it is so entirely out of the common and thoroughly delightful." -Country Life "It is certainly his most sustained and most finished performance." -Saturday Review "Could only have been written by a poet full of happy imaginings, quaint conceits, and a certain winsome waywardness which has a charm of its own....The closing chapter is full of a tenderness and reticent pathos far above anything the author has yet achieved. It is certainly a book to be read, for it would be a pity to miss the many exquisite passages it contains." -World "It is this very quality of humor, rare and unexpected, along with other virtues for which he is so well known, that gives to his new book that indefinable charm which he justly declares to be, in art and elsewhere above all fixed law of beauty." -National Observer CONTENTS THE TWENTY-FIRST OF OCTOBER DIES IRAE MUTABILE SEMPER THE MAGIC RING ITS WALLS WERE AS OF JASPER A SAGA OF THE SEAS THE RELUCTANT DRAGON A DEPARTURE

Unabridged (100% Original content) Font adjustments & biography included Illustrated Dream Days by Kenneth Grahame Dream Days is a collection of children's fiction and reminiscences of childhood written by Kenneth Grahame. A sequel to the 1895 collection The Golden Age, Dream Days was first published in 1898 under the imprint John Lane: The Bodley Head. The first six selections in the book had been previously published in periodicals of the day - in The Yellow Book and the New Review in Britain and in Scribner's Magazine in the U.S. The book is best known for its inclusion of Grahame's classic story "The Reluctant Dragon". Like its precursor volume, Dream Days received strong approval from the literary critics of the day. In the decades since, the book has perhaps suffered a reputation as a thinner and weaker sequel to The Golden Age-except for its single hit story. In one modern estimation, both books "paint a convincingly unsentimental picture of childhood, with the adults in these sketches totally out of touch with the real concerns of the young people around them, including their griefs and rages."
