Toad & Friends Kenneth Grahame’s literary classic ‘Wind in the Willows’ springs to life in this new series following the further adventures of the much loved characters: kind and considerate Mole, reliable Rat and of course incorrigible Toad. Situated on and around the river that is such a big part of their lives and landscape, they are now joined by irrepressible Hedge the Hedgehog, Kingfisher, Heron and Adder.
