"The Wind in the Willows is a classic children's novel by the British novelist Kenneth Grahame, first published in 1908. It details the story of Mole, Ratty, and Badger as they try to help Mr. Toad, after he becomes obsessed with motorcars and gets into trouble. It also details short stories about them that are disconnected from the main narrative. The novel was based on bedtime stories Grahame told his son Alastair. It has been adapted numerous times for both stage and screen."
Hedgehog character:
The two young hedgehogs stay with Badger after the snowstorm interrupts their trip to school in Chapter 4. While there, they eat breakfast and visit with Rat and Mole before leaving with some money Badger gives them.
