The Wind in the Willows is a classic of childrens literature written in 1908 by Kenneth GrahamernrnThe story is alternately slow moving and fast paced focusing on four heavily anthropomorphised animal characters in a pastoral version of England The novel is notable for its mixture of mysticism adventure morality and camaraderiernrnThe book made Grahames fortune enabling him to retire from his hated though respectable and well paid bank job and move to the country Grahame spent his time by the River Thames doing much as the animal characters in his book do namely in one of the most famous phrases from the book simply messing about in boats The book was saved from obscurity by the then famous playwright A A Milne who loved the book and adapted it for stage in Toad of Toad HallrnrnIt can also be viewed as a commentary on class dynamics in British society In general the river bankers represented the upper classes and the wild wooders represented the lower classes More specifically the character of Toad represented the upper class Rat and Badger represented the middle classes with Badger leaning closer to upper class and the character Mole represented the lower class due to his earthy nature
