Winnie-the-Pooh

In the 1920s, A. A. Milne published a series of stories – first told to his son Christopher Robin – about a bear called Winnie-the-Pooh. Since then, the lovable bear has occupied a special place in the hearts of readers all over the world. This stunning Folio book has been lovingly reproduced with full-colour illustrations to celebrate the magic of both A. A. Milne’s stories and the artistry of E. H. Shepard. Some books speak as profoundly to adults as they do to children. The characters Milne created – Winnie-the-Pooh, Piglet, Rabbit, Eeyore, Owl, Kanga, Roo and Tigger – have become a part of countless childhoods, and are equally loved by adults. From the ‘wobbly spelling’ and almost absurdly funny conversations, to the enchanting hand-coloured illustrations of E. H. Shepard, Winnie-the-Pooh provides page after page of incomparable pleasure. Adventures in the Hundred Acre Wood include rescuing Pooh from a tight situation, discovering the North Pole and saving Piglet from the Great Flood in an upturned umbrella.
