Klassikeren i gavebokutgave som er nyoversatt og fullstendig - med unntak av kapittelet "The Piper at the Gates of Dawn", som det engelske forlaget anså å være mindre viktig for sammenhengen. Illustrasjonene er også nye, både stemningsfulle og humoristiske gjenskaper de det overdådige innholdet, og lever til fulle opp til Grahames både poetiske og viltre tekst. Muldvarpen bestemmer seg en dag for å gi blaffen i vårrengjøringen, og stikker hodet opp av jorda. Der oppe treffer han den sindige og velvillige Rotta, den kloke og rettskafne herr Grevling og ikke minst den avsindig selvtilfredse skrytepaven Padda. Det er Paddas viderverdigheter vi virvles inn i, og som de trofaste vennene stadig må redde ham ut av. Og alt foregår i det fredelige, engelske landskapet der elva flyter sakte.
Vinden i piletræerne er den klassiske fortælling om vennerne Muldvarpen, Vandrotten, Tudse og Grævlingen.

Den blev udgivet første gang i 1908 og blev omgående en bestseller. Siden har bogen fortryllet generation efter generation over hele verden. Men selv de største klassikere fortjener et nyt udtryk og denne nyillustrerede udgave i David Roberts storslåede fortolkning inviterer nye læsere med på eventyr.

Redan tidigt cementerade boken sin ställning som ett mästerverk och den har i mer än ett sekels tid varit en kär vän för generationer av läsare. Det susar i säven är inte bara en stunds roande läsning, otaliga är de som under en livstid upprepade gånger återvänder till den förtrollade engelska landsbygden och dess invånare: den poetiske Mullvaden, den modige Vattenråttan, den skrytsamme och själviske Paddan, den barske Grävlingen och de elaka vesslorna, som ockuperar Paddeborg. Berättelsen är omväxlande långsam och snabbfotad och är unik i sin blandning av mysticism, äventyr, moral, kamratskap och hyllad för dess lyriska, målande skildringar av den engelska landsbygden. Originalupplagan av Det susar i säven innehöll inga illustrationer, och det gör inte heller denna utgåva. Men på köpet får du e-boken via en qr-kod inuti.

"It takes all sorts to make a world." tired of his Spring cleaning, moly, the polite and altruistic Mole, steps out of his secluded home under the ground and reaches the river. He befriends ratty, who takes him on his first boat ride. 'Believe me, My young friend, there is nothing-absolute nothing-half so much worth doing as simply messing about in boats.' Fun and adventure begins as the two friends visit the Jovial and boastful Mr. Toad, the owner of the Toad hall, and the kindly Mr. Badger of the wild wood. From Mr. Toad's motor car crashes and imprisonment to the quartet's battle with the weasels and stoats, join them as they move from one escapade to the other. One of the best-loved tales in children's literature, The wind in the Willows has been entertaining readers of all ages for more than a century now. It continues to remain as celebrated as ever.
After leaving his deep home, the mole arrives to a river he has never seen before. Toad is wealthy, merry, amiable, and kindhearted, but he is also haughty and has a quick temper. He frequently becomes fixated on popular trends before dumping them out of the blue. Toad's passion for caravan travel is supplanted with a fixation with motorcars after a passing automobile scares his horse into a ditch. In an effort to meet the moral and wise Badger, Mole and Rat travel to the Wild Wood to find him. They discover that Toad has been in seven automobile accidents, has visited the hospital three times, and has racked up significant penalties. When the moment is perfect, Badger and Mole decide to come up with a strategy to keep Toad from harming himself. The three of them place Toad under house imprisonment with themselves serving as guards as spring approaches, but Toad connives Ratty into leaving so he may escape. Badger, Rat, Mole, and Toad attack the partying Wild-Wooders who are unaware that they are being ambushed in Toad Hall. The book includes a number of standalone short stories starring Rat and Mole, including one in which they come across the untamed god Pan while looking for Otter's son Portly. The majority of these come in between the chapters that detail Toad's exploits.

Everything jumped and pulsed in response to the giant's movement since it was one of the earliest awakenings of the year. The powerful wind was screaming and chasing the lord of the dawn outside. Our pond had a belt of rhododendrons growing next to it, and everything around it was in foul bloom. Edward and Harold were enjoying the opportunity to return to the sheaves from the rick yard in empty wagons. It was the closest we inland urchins could get to a sailing route. On these dusty quarter decks, exciting scenarios like Sir Richard Grenville on the Revenge, the smoke-draped Battle of the Nile, and the Death of Nelson had all been acted out in turn. Modern aunts avoided it, preferring to handle their finances and correspondence in other places. On this, the leading lady decided to halt and take the time to inspect how her new dressing robe fit. Edward's dramatic impulses were overwhelmed by this, so he entered the stage with flourishes appropriate for the situation. Following a battle along legal lines, Selina was fatally stabbed slowly and with unction, and her corpse was carried from the room. The professor intended to reject Olympians for adding two and two. We took care to keep our aptitude for a straightforward syllogism a secret.
