For Children of All Ages
' The Wind in the Willows' by Kenneth Grahame
Arranged for broadcasting in eight instalments by May Jenkin
2 — ' The Open Road '
Production by Josephine Plummer
' One brigiht summer morning rhe Rat was sitting on the river bank, singing a little song. He had just composed it himself, so the was very taken up with it, and would not pay proper attention to the Mole or anything else. Since early morning he had been swimming in the river, in company with his friends the ducks. And when the ducks stood on their heads suddenly, as ducks will, he would dive down and tickle pheir necks, just under where their chins would be if ducks had ohins, till they swam off in a hurry, spluttering and angry and shaking their feathers at him, for it is impossible to say quite all you feel when your head is under water At last they implored him to go away and attend to this own affairs and leave them to mind theirs.....'
