What is The wind in the willows about?

When Mole leaves his cosy underground home, he discovers the joys and dangers of the riverside world. Along the way, he befriends the cheerful, river-loving Rat, the wise and mysterious Badger, and the boastful, reckless Toad. Together they share picnics, face the frightening Wild Wood and rescue Toad from trouble caused by his obsession with fast cars. Through exciting adventures, mishaps and moments of courage, the four friends learn the true value of loyalty, home and friendship.
