The Wind in the Willows: Chapter One
In this dreamy first chapter, “The Riverbank,” we get to meet Mr. Mole, the Water Rat, the Otter, the Badger, and of course, Mr. Toad.
This tale is all about trying something new, falling in love with the water, making new friends, and the beauty of nature, especially when the weather is warm.
“Absorbed in the new life he was entering upon, intoxicated with the sparkle, the ripple, the scents, and the sounds, and the sunlight, he trailed a paw in the water and dreamed long waking dreams.”
