A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

Kenneth Grahame (1859-1932) was a Scottish-born British writer best known for his enduring children's classic The Wind in the Willows. Educated at Oxford and later employed at the Bank of England, Grahame began publishing essays and short pieces before turning to the imaginative animal stories that would secure his lasting reputation.The Wind in the Willows (1908), with its memorable characters-Mole, Rat, Badger, and the irrepressible Mr. Toad-blends pastoral tranquility with gentle adventure, capturing both the comforts of home and the allure of the open road. The novel's lyrical prose and affectionate humor have made it a staple of children's literature while also appealing to adult readers for its reflective tone.Grahame's writing is marked by a love of the English countryside and a sensitivity to friendship, loyalty, and the quiet rhythms of rural life. Though his published output was modest, his work remains one of the most cherished contributions to early twentieth-century children's fiction.
