Playful tune by Victor Call of High Springs, FL. Tied notes across bars, slight syncopations, and mood changes were intended to suggest the jaunty, joyful automobile adventures and mishaps of the amphibian character in Kenneth Grahame's children's classic "The Wind in the Willows."

This tune could be played with melodically through ornamentation and note substitutions, and rhythmically through accented beats and off-beats.
