‘The Mole had been working very hard all the morning, spring-cleaning his little home. First with brooms, then with dusters; then on ladders and steps and chairs…’

Ever since Kenneth Grahame wrote the story for his young son, countless children have grown up with Toad, Mol, Rat, Badger and the rest as intimate friends – knowing exactly how they look through Ernest Shepard’s classic illustrations.

As the author said, ‘It is a book of youth, and so perhaps chiefly for youth, and those who still keep the spirit of youth alive in them; of life, sunshine, running water, woodlands, dusty roads, winter firesides.’

It is a book which every child will want to own for themself, and to experience again and again.

Hardback Book from 1974 is in Good Used Condition (see photos) – there is a little bit of foxing on the ends of the pages
