An international children's classic, The Wind in the Willows grew from the author's letters to his young son, yet it is concerned almost exclusively with adult themes. This new edition explores a profoundly English book with a world following; a book for adults adopted by children; a timeless masterpiece and a vital portrait of an age.

Winnie decides she needs a seaside break, so she and Wilbur zoom off to the coast. Wilbur makes a beeline for anywhere other than the sea. Winnie is having so much fun in the water that she doesn't notice her broomstick being washed out to sea. She waves her magic wand in an attempt to get the broomstick back, but it doesn't go according to plan.

Whoops! Winnie the Witch has just sat on Wilbur ... again! But that's what happens if you share your black house with a black cat. Can Winnie find a magical way to put a stop to the accidents? And how will she bring a purr-fectly happy ending to this story full of colourful surprises? A modern classic for pre-schoolers everywhere.
