The Wind in the Willows and Other Stories (Word Cloud Classics)

A timeless collection of stories told with a focus on children`s perspectives. Kenneth Grahame`s The Wind in the Willows is an enduring classic of children`s literature, and has been beloved by readers of all ages since its publication in 1908. In addition to the delightful tale about the adventures of Mole, Ratty, Badger, and Toad - illustrated in full color by Arthur Rackham - this volume includes more than two dozen short stories from Grahame`s collections The Golden Age (1895) and Dream Days (1898), the latter of which contains Grahame`s most famous short story, `The Reluctant Dragon.` With an emphasis on childhood perspectives and often devoid of adult sentimentalities, Grahame`s stories focus on the concerns of youth - a focus that makes these stories endure in the hearts and minds of today`s readers.
