Far from fading with time, Kenneth Grahame's classic tale of
fantasy has attracted a growing audience in each generation. Rat,
Mole, Badger and the preposterous Mr Toad (with his
'Poop-poop-poop' road-hogging new motor-car), have brought delight
to many through the years with their odd adventures on and by the
river, and at the imposing residence of Toad Hall. Grahame's book
was later dramatised by A. A. Milne, and became a perennial
Christmas favourite, as Toad of Toad Hall. It continues to enchant
and, above all perhaps, inspire great affection.
