The Wind in the Willows: Chapter 2 - The Open Road

For tonight’s bedtime sleep story, I’ll be reading “The Wind in the Willows Chapter 2: The Open Road”, by Kenneth Grahame. The Wind in the Willows is a classic novel by Scottish novelist Kenneth Grahame, first published in 1908. Alternatingly slow-moving and fast-paced, it focuses on four anthropomorphised animals: Mole, Rat (a European water vole), Toad, and Badger. They live in a pastoral version of Edwardian England. The novel is notable for its mixture of mysticism, adventure, morality, and camaraderie, and is celebrated for its evocation of the nature of the Thames Valley.
