The Wind in the Willows
"There's nothing--absolutely nothing--half so much worth doing as messing about in boats."
Mole is a good-natured, home-loving mole, who has never gone anywhere. But one Spring he gets so sick of cleaning his home that he abandons everything and ventures out into the world. He soon meets a friendly rat, who shows him the Thames and introduces him to variety of whimsical characters.
Like some of the best children's classics - `Alice in Wonderland', `Winnie the Pooh' and `Peter Pan' - `The Wind in the Willows' (1908) started as adult simply inventing stories to tell a child. In 1949 it inspired the Disney movie, `The Adventures of Ichabod and Mr. Toad'.

Kenneth Grahame
Kenneth Grahame (1859–1932) est un écrivain britannique, surtout célèbre pour son chef-d’œuvre *Le Vent dans les saules* (1908), un classique de la littérature jeunesse. Orphelin dès son plus jeune âge, il grandit auprès de sa grand-mère dans le Berkshire, cadre qui inspirera profondément son univers littéraire. Après des études à Oxford, il travaille à la Banque d’Angleterre avant de se consacrer pleinement à l’écriture. Ses recueils *The Golden Age* (1895) et *Dream Days* (1898) célèbrent avec nostalgie et humour l’insouciance de l’enfance, mêlant souvenirs autobiographiques et fiction poétique.
