Small book "The Return of the Hero - A Wind in the Willows Storybook" by Kenneth Grahame, illustrated by Ernest H. Shepard, copyright 1991.
Cute little book in very good shape with minor wear.
The Wind in the Willows, the story of Mole and Rat, Badger and Toad, has been enjoyed by countless children ever since Kenneth Grahame first began to tell his own son a series of stories on the evening of his fourth birthday.
The book was first published in 1908, but it wasnt until 1930 that Ernest H. Shepard, already famous for his illustrations for A. A. Milnes Winnie the Pooh, drew his wonderful pictures to accompany the text.
Almost forty years later, when he was nearly ninety, Shepard colored his classic line drawings with a freshness and vitality which have enchanted new generations of children.
As Kenneth Grahame himself wrote, it is a book for those "who keep the spirit of youth alive in them; of life, sunshine, running water, woodlands, dusty roads, winter firesides."
