Down by the river bank, where the wind whispers through the willow trees, is a very pleasant place to have a lunch with a few friends. But life is not always so peaceful for the Mole and the Water Rat. There is the time, for example, when Tad gets interested in motor-cars – goes mad about them in fact…
The story of the adventures of the Mole, Rat, Badger, and Toad has been loved by young and old for almost a hundred years.

Grumpty Badgers Christmas
Christmas is coming and everyone is so excited - except for Grumpy Badger. Piffle he shouts. I am going to sleep until spring, and if anyone wakes me up I shall be VERY grumpy. But then Grumpy Badger has three visitors... and there is a great crisis. Will he learn the error of his ways before it's too late?
The twelve days of Christmas are fast approaching and Mole is planning to enjoy every one of them with his River Bank friends. So when the normally cheerful Toad despairs at the arrival of Mrs. Ffleshe, an impossibly rude houseguest who every year sets out to protect Toad from overindulgence, Mole must do something about it. But the plan he hatches with Ratty, Badger, and Otter goes horribly wrong. With the prospect of spending Christmas in jail, Mole will have to work hard if he is to salvage some Christmas spirit for his friends. Reuploaded Thanks to stats
