Book Overview
NEW stunning hardback edition showcasing the original E.H.Shepard art with Milne's classic, timeless stories.
'You're the Best Bear in All the World, ' said Christopher Robin. 'Am I?' said Pooh hopefully.
E.H.Shepard's original, iconic artwork has been reproduced for this 100th anniversary range so it truly pays homage to the vividness of the original art that accompanied Milne's classic, favourite stories.
Meet the world's favourite bear in this delightful collection, in which Pooh gets into a tight place, nearly catches a Woozle, and discovers the wrong sort of honey - amongst other things
A.A.Milne's Winnie-the-Pooh is nothing less than a true children's classic. Winnie-the-Pooh may be a Bear of Very Little Brain, but thanks to his friends Piglet, Eeyore and, of course, Christopher Robin, he's never far from an adventure.
This very special 100th anniversary hardback collection of the classic stories will delight fans of Winnie-the-Pooh young and old. Relive all your favourite moments in the Hundred Acre Wood, brought stunningly to life with the iconic original decorations by E.H.Shepard.
Milne and Shepard had a unique working relationship for their time, in that they closely collaborated on the design of the storybooks and poetry. This joint approach to laying out the words and illustrations was clearly the perfect partnership; Shepard entirely captured the charm of Pooh's world, created by Milne, resulting in the gorgeous books we all know and love.
The nation's favourite teddy bear has been delighting generations of children for nearly 100 years. Milne's classic children's stories - featuring Piglet, Eeyore, Christopher Robin and, of course, Pooh himself - are gently humorous while teaching lessons about friendship and kindness.
Pooh ranks alongside other beloved characters such as Paddington Bear and Peter Rabbit as an essential part of our literary heritage. Whether you're 5 or 55, Pooh is the bear for all ages.

Some retro reviews of the original publication in the 1920s:
"'Winnie-the-Pooh' ... in which Mr. A. A. Milne has made himself the humble chronicler, and Mr. E. H. Shepard the understanding illustrator, of the adventures of Christopher Robin and his teddy bear, is the ideal gift book.", Sheffield Daily Telegraph, 9th December 1926
"... a book that children will adore, and that their elders will pick up by stealth and read zestfully to the very end.", The Aberdeen Press and Journal, 9th December 1926
"Written with a lively fancy and a delicate literary sense, these adventures are sure of a warm welcome in the nursery.", The Scotsman, 9th December 1926
"Dialogue and situations such as these must have been as delightful to invent as they are delightful to read. And to have one's fancies so delicately caught by the artistry of Mr. E. H. Shepard - that must have been another delight, which does not come to every author.", The Sketch, 12th January 1927
