What began as a series of bedtime stories for his own son was published in
1908 and became one of the most beloved children's books of all time. The
stories take place in the English countryside and follow the delightful
adventures of four animal friends: Rat, Mole, Badger and the crazy Mr. Toad
of Toad Hall. Even though they dress and speak like humans, they each exhibit
their uniquely defining animal characteristics.
