How does The Wind in the Willows end?

The Wind in the Willows ends with Mole, Rat, and Badger helping Toad retake Toad Hall from stoats and weasels in a secret tunnel attack — Toad learns humility, hosts a corrected banquet, and promises reform while friends stay nearby to check him.

Home is restored; friendship proven; Toad’s boast curtailed. Grahame’s “Return of Ulysses” echo celebrates homecoming after Toad’s wanderings. Students should connect siege to earlier car/prison arcs — same hall, new gratitude. Open tone: reform promised, not guaranteed.
