Rank 72 of 100
The Wind in the Willows
Synopsis
Mole abandons spring-cleaning for the river, and falls in with Rat, Badger, and Mr. Toad, who cannot be trusted with a motor-car. Grahame’s book is half picnic and half chase, a defense of small domestic pleasures written as if they might not survive the new century.
Synopses are original catalog copy written for Every Book Ever, not publisher blurbs.
