Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Since it first appeared in 1908, Kenneth Grahame's enchanting story The Wind in the Willows has been a childhood classic. Now, in this splendidly designed musical adaptation, characters beloved for generations' spring to life again. Was there ever a creature as flamboyant as Mr. Toad of Toad Hill? Dressed in flashy outfits no sensible animal would wear, he's rich - but so foolish and boastful that his friends Ratty, Badger and Moley are frantic, and they vow to make him repent for his follies.

Since it first appeared in 1908, Kenneth Grahame's enchanting story The Wind in the Willows has been a childhood classic. Now, in this splendidly designed musical adaptation, characters beloved for generations' spring to life again. Was there ever a creature as flamboyant as Mr. Toad of Toad Hill? Dressed in flashy outfits no sensible animal would wear, he's rich - but so foolish and boastful that his friends Ratty, Badger and Mole are frantic, and they vow to make him repent for his follies.
One spring, Mole decides to begin a series of adventures with his new friend, Rat. They go for a picnic on the riverbank and on an expedition with Toad. Toad decides his new car is more fun and his reckless driving makes Mole and Rat search out Badger for help. Toad gets away from them and gets a 20-year sentence for theft, reckless driving, and gross impertinence. Toad works his wiles on the jailer's daughter and manages to escape. Badger tries to guard Toad Hall from the Weasel and is badly beaten. This finally brings all four friends back together, as it requires a plan of attack to regain Toad Hall.
