The River Bank: A Sequel to Kenneth Grahame's "The Wind in the Willows"

(3) 4-6 Illustrated by Kathleen Jennings. Johnson captures the essence of Grahame's beloved characters with expertise. When a lady mole and a lady rabbit take up lodgings in a cottage on the River Bank, Mole is disgruntled, Rat is perplexed, and Toad is eager to impress. Miscommunications ultimately give way to grand adventures. Grahame's world is neither disturbed nor transformed, merely richer. Jennings's illustrations perfectly complement the tale.
