Since 1926, Winnie-the-Pooh and his friends—Piglet, Owl, Tigger, Kanga, Roo, and the ever doleful Eeyore—have endured as the unforgettable creations of A. A. Milne, who wrote two books of Pooh’s adventures for his son, Christopher Robin, and Ernest H. Shepard, who lovingly gave them shape through his iconic and beautiful illustrations.
These characters and their stories are timeless treasures of childhood that continue to speak to all of us with the kind of freshness and heart that distinguishes true storytelling.
This deluxe volume brings both Pooh stories—Winnie-the-Pooh and The House at Pooh Corner—together in one beautiful, full-color edition. The texts are complete and unabridged, and all of the illustrations, each gloriously recolored, are included. Elegant yet simple, whimsical yet wise, this classic edition is a book to savor and treasure.
The perfect gift for holiday, to welcome a new baby, or for your favorite collector and book lover.
This was, of course, a reread. I love these stories so much, and the end of the last one always makes me sob. Winnie the Pooh has a timeless charm that no other children’s story can quite reach. These stories are beyond special, even if the end makes me very happy and very sad at the same time. Especially as a mother to three young children. I hope I will always allow those precious children time to “do nothing.”
What a bittersweet joy it was to read The Complete Tales of Winnie-the-Pooh to my daughter. A charming classic that brought tears to my eyes at a time when life seems to be passing me by with cruel quickness. But maybe some things like the warmth of childhood never truly fade away
3.5 ⭐️. Read to my 10, 7, and 5 year old. I’ll tell you what I loved: the cutest stories with the most gorgeous illustrations. What I didn’t like: such a difficult read aloud. I don’t know why but A.A. Milne’s stuff does not roll off the tongue for me. I think these stories are best read on your own.
