Hear the beloved children's tale as read by B.J. Harrison. "The Wind in the Willows" follows the eventful adventures of four animals: Mole, Rat, Toad and Badger, as they navigate twists of friendship, dangers and changing surroundings. This 20th-century novel has become known and loved through countless adaptations on the screen and stage alike, including the animated Disney adaptation The Adventures of Ichabod and Mr. Toad (1949) and the British film The Wind in the Willows (1996) starring Steve Coogan.

B. J. Harrison started his Classic Tales Podcast back in 2007, wanting to breathe new life into classic stories. He masterfully plays with a wide array of voices and accents and has since then produced over 500 audiobooks. Now in collaboration with SAGA Egmont, his engaging narration of these famous classics is available to readers everywhere.

Kenneth Grahame (1859-1932) was a Scottish writer of children’s stories loved by children and adults alike. He is perhaps best-known for his novel "The Wind in the Willows" from 1908, featuring memorable animal figures and the especially beloved Toad character. The story has inspired numerous adaptations, with film adaptations including the British film The Wind in the Willows (1996), featuring Steve Coogan. Part of the story was also adapted by author A.A. Milne for the play "Toad of Toad Hall" in 1929.

Over de auteur

Kenneth Grahame (1859-1932) was een Engels schrijver. Grahame werd geboren in Edinburgh, Schotland. Hij werd beroemd met het klassieke kinderboek De wind in de wilgen (The Wind in the Willows, 1908, met illustraties van Ernest Shepard.)

Grahame werd al vroeg wees en woonde bij zijn grootmoeder in Engeland. Hij bezocht St. Edward's School in Oxford maar kon zich geen universiteitsstudie veroorloven. Hij werkte bij de Bank of England, een kantoorbaan die hij verafschuwde, tot hij in 1907 vanwege gezondheidsproblemen met pensioen ging en het plattelandsleven kon gaan leiden dat hij altijd al had gewenst.
