In 1949, Walt Disney released his version of ''The Wind in the Willows'' in his film ''The Adventures of Ichabod and Mr. Toad'', sharing this with Washington Irving's ''The Legend of Sleepy Hollow''. He has done some changes like Toad being framed for stealing the motorcar instead of actually stealing it himself and changing Rat from a sailor with a Bohemian streak to a stuffy yet caring Englishman.
