This new edition, sensitively abridged and exquisitely illustrated by Inga Moore, is sure to continue that magic. Meet the amiable Mole, his hearty companion, the Water Rat, the genial Badger and the wayward Toad, and enjoy some of the most memorable adventures ever depicted.This book is that rare thing – a classic work of literature that is both beautiful and very funny."This stunning achievement – Moore's illustrations are just so perfect for the book that you can almost feel Kenneth Grahame smiling down upon it."
