"That night, the weary Mole was glad to turn in. But before he closed his eyes, he let them wander round his old room. He saw how plain and simple it all was, but also how much it all meant. He did not want to abandon the new life. The upper world was all too strong. It called to him. But it was good to think he had this to come back to, this place that was all his own, these things that could always be counted upon for the same simple welcome.
The River was his adventure.
This was his home."
