The Wind in the Willows

Lesley Sims (author), Mauro Evangelista (illustrator)

This is an evocative picture book based on the beloved classic tale and retold for younger children. 'The Wind in the Willows' is a re-telling of the beloved Kenneth Grahame story following the adventures of four riverside companions: Mole, Ratty, Badger and, of course, the eponymous Mr Toad. It is evocatively illustrated by Mauro Evangelista, who also illustrated the Young Reading titles 'Alice in Wonderland' and 'The Wizard of Oz'.

Lesley Sims dreamed of being a writer, but studied law as her mother insisted she had "something to fall back on". Since joining Usborne Publishing, she has written and edited hundreds of books, from funny rhyming stories to an award-winning history book. Nowadays, she is often found recording books, too, in Usborne's very own recording studio.
