Synopsis

'One day when Pooh Bear had nothing else to do, he thought he would do something, so he went round to Piglet's house to see what Piglet was doing.'

This is the second classic children’s story by A.A. Milne about Winnie-the-Pooh and his friends in the Hundred Acre Wood. In this volume Pooh meets the irrepressible Tigger for the first time, learns to play Poohsticks and sets a trap for a Heffalump.

About this title

Review:

This is the second volume of stories created by A.A. Milne for his son, Christopher Robin, in which Pooh and Piglet go adventuring again with all their friends in the Hundred Acre Wood. We are introduced to Tigger, and find out what he likes to eat; Piglet "Does a Very Grand Thing"; and Eeyore finds the Wolery. Accompanied by E.H. Shepard's original illustrations in colour, this is a perfect book to have handy when a request is made for a bedtime story. -- Philippa Reece

From the Author:

A.A. Milne is quite simply one of the most famous children’s authors of all time. He created Winnie-the-Pooh and his friends Piglet, Eeyore, Tigger, Kanga and Roo based on the real nursery toys played with by his son, Christopher Robin. And those characters not only became the stars of his classic children’s books, Winnie-the-Pooh and The House at Pooh Corner, and his poetry for children, they have also been adapted for film, TV and the stage. Through his writings for Punch magazine, A.A. Milne met E.H. Shepard. Shepard went on to draw the original illustrations to accompany Milne’s classics, earning him the name “the man who drew Pooh”.
