The Wind in the Willows is book that made Kenneth Grahame popular. „Wind in the willows” is an elegant parable about class struggle, about the dangers of decadent country life in the face of powerful revolutionary forces. This story explores the life of four generations. Kenneth Grahame wrote this story in a difficult period:women were propagandising for the vote,the Irish were demanding Home Rule.

An excellent book to read to children, but also good to read as an adult. This story brings many adults back to childhood. In such a simple story. Delightful childhood reminiscences beautifully written in Grahame’s charming prose. Poetic, tender, insightful, very lovely, a portal into the life of a children.

The stories generally tell about the childhood of 3 boys and 2 girls. Children call adults Olympians and believe that adults no longer know how to have fun. Each of the chapters is an adventure story that children make or imagine. The book will help you get rid of the everyday hustle and bustle of a simple, but spiritual story.

The Headswoman is an unusual little tale about the power a woman can wield. A funny, witty, intelligent story about an executioner. Along the way, Grahame takes shots at lawyers and small town officials, among others. Thoroughly delightful and well worth reading.

Excerpt from „In Pawn”: Lem Redding had a dimple in his cheek that appeared when he smiled. For a boy with a faceful of freckles he was pretty. He had dear, bright gray eyes, and his smile, aided by the dimple, made most folks love him at sight. His hair was brown, as his dead mother’s had been; in fact he was much like that mother in more ways than one-far more like her than he was like Harvey Redding, his father. Lem was quick, agile, lively, and Harvey was plumb lazy. Th...
