About the Author

Kenneth Grahame (1859–1932) was born in Edinburgh and educated at St Edward’s School, Oxford. He was due to attend Oxford University but instead began work at the Bank of England where he rose to the rank of Secretary. The bedtime stories he invented for his son Alastair (nicknamed ‘Mouse’), were later reworked and became his most famous novel, The Wind in the Willows (1908: Folio Society edition 2005). His other writings include The Golden Age (1895) and Dream Days (1898).
