The Adventures of Portly the Otter: Untold Tales from The Wind in the Willows

'Believe me, my young friend, there is NOTHING – absolutely nothing half so much worth doing as simply messing about in boats.' There is a time in a young otter's life when they must be introduced to their river. For Portly, today was that day ...Told across four seasons in one year, little Portly has the greatest of adventures. Amongst other fur-raising encounters, the youngest of Mrs Otter's pups learns to swim, battles a large trout, rescues a human girl, outwits the weasels and stoats of the Wild Wood and is discovered sleeping between the cloven feet of the god Pan, just as he was in the original The Wind in the Willows. Faithful to the charm, nostalgia and sounds of splashing in the river that fans of the original have so enjoyed over the years, M.G.Leonard's spin-off from The Wind in the Willows will enchant an entirely new generation.
