Default Wind in the Willows Patterns

I'm looking for patterns or pictures to be used in carving characters from "The Wind in the Willows" book. Does anyone have or know where I could find such pictures or carving patterns?

Thanks in advance.

Steve

Steve, welcome!
Did you try a Google search for these characters? Also try looking for a "Wind in the Willows' coloring book.
Maybe someone will have some better ideas for you.

Yes, I've tried both web and images searches. I'll look in a copy of the book. I thought I'd seen an article in one of the American carving magazines, or in the British carving magazine, but no luck yet.
Thanks for the advice

Pick up a copy in the childrens section of the library or book store. They are usually well illustrated.
