The official site for WILLIAM HORWOOD, AUTHOR OF DUNCTON WOOD AND THE BOY WITH NO SHOES

Harsh winter has struck the River Bank but while all sensible creatures are fast deep in their burrows, dreaming of warmer weather, Mole foolishly sets out into the Wild Wood to seek Badger’s help and disappears in the storm. Toad’s offer of help turns disastrously wrong and what should have been a rescue mission for Mole turns into one for the vainest, most conceited Toad along the River Bank.
