Tales of the Willows
William Horwood is the author of four sequels to The Wind in the Willows, forming the Tales of the Willows series:
The coolness of the riverbank, and the whispering of the reeds
Daybreak is not so very far away
Enchanted and spellbound, in the silence they lingered
And rowed the boat as the light grew steadily strong
— Van Morrison, "The Piper at the Gates of Dawn"
