Minor: Bullying, Confinement, Violence, Alcohol, and Classism

This is a gentle children's classic that deals with its themes in a very mild way. The most dramatic elements involve

Toad stealing a car, getting imprisoned, and the friends having to fight to reclaim Toad Hall from weasels

, but everything is handled with a light touch appropriate for young readers. The violence is cartoonish rather than threatening.
