Mole, Water Rat, Badger, and of course, Toad of Toad Hall: these characters have captivated children ever since the early 20th century, when Kenneth Grahame wrote his gentle and humorous tale. Kids will still feel the magic today, as they happily make the acquaintance of Mole, who is seeing a river for the first time ever, and his new friend Ratty.

The birds are flying south. The mice are moving out. Everyone is leaving the river for the winter. When Rat hears a traveler's stories, he is tempted to leave home too.
