KENNETH GRAHAME (Edimburgo, 1859 - Pangbourne, 1932) lavorò per molti anni come alto funzionario della Banca d’Inghilterra, prima di ritirarsi nella campagna del Berkshire, lungo le sponde del Tamigi, per dedicarsi alla scrittura. Sposato con Elspeth Thomson, ebbe un unico figlio, costantemente afflitto da problemi di salute. Fu per lui che Grahame compose l’opera che l’ha reso immortale, Il vento tra i salici, basata sulle storie che soleva raccontare al figlio. Il drago riluttante fu inizialmente pubblicato all’interno di un volume di saggi sull’infanzia intitolato Dream Days, nel 1898. Fu solo dopo la morte dello scrittore che la casa editrice Holiday House lo propose al grande pubblico come racconto per ragazzi, riscuotendo un successo straordinario, in patria e in America, testimoniato dall’adattamento cinematografico della Disney del 1941. Di Grahame in Italia sono usciti anche L’età d’oro e Giorni di sogno.

"The Wind in the Willows" invites you to step into a timeless world, where the charm of the English countryside whispers through every page. Imagine a place where the rustling leaves, the glistening rivers, and the gentle breeze hold secrets of adventure and camaraderie.In this enchanting tale, penned by Kenneth Grahame, the meadows and woods come alive with characters that tug at your heartstrings.

Together, they embark on idyllic river escapades that transport you to the essence of carefree joy.But the story doesn't end there. Enter the charismatic and reckless Toad, a character whose larger-than-life personality fills the pages with uproarious laughter and delightful chaos.

It beckons you to put aside the hurried pace of the modern world and join in the mirthful dance of Mole, Ratty, Toad, and Badger under the golden dappled sunsets, where dreams are woven from whispers of the wind in the willows.
