Description

Official Sequel by David Benedictus Inspired by Milne's Classic Stories About Everyone's Favourite Bear From the excitement of Christopher Robin's return, to the curious business of learning to play cricket, Return to the Hundred Acre Wood features all the old friends we know and love - from Pooh to Piglet, Eeyore to Owl and Tigger to Rabbit. David Benedictus's authorized sequel to A.A.Milne's original Winnie-the-Pooh stories is splendidly illustrated by Mark Burgess in the style of the original E.H.Shepard decorations. All of the old friends are in attendance. Enjoy the sights, sounds and smells of the Hundred Acre Wood in brand-new stories created 90 years after it was first discovered. There's still plenty of fun to be had in this forest. The stories are decorated with beautiful illustrations by Mark Burgess in the style of E.H.Shepard. Mark is uniquely suited to this having also illustrated Once There Was a Bear and The Best Bear in All the World. Do you own all the classic Pooh titles? Winnie-the-Pooh The House at Pooh Corner When We Were Very Young Now We Are Six Return to the Hundred Acre Wood The Best Bear in All the World Once There Was a Bear The nation's favourite teddy bear has been delighting generations of children for over 95 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 character 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.
