The Wind in the Willows by Kenneth Grahame Author Of “The Golden Age,” “Dream Days,” Etc.

The Mole had been working very hard all the morning, spring-cleaning his little home.

First with brooms, then with dusters; then on ladders and steps and chairs, with a brush and a pail of whitewash; till he had dust in his throat and eyes, and splashes of whitewash all over his black fur, and an aching back and weary arms.
