Winnie-the-Pooh by A. A. Milne Book Summary

“Once upon a time, a very long time ago now, about last Friday, Winnie-the-Pooh lived in a forest all by himself under the name of Sanders.”

Curl up with a true children’s classic by reading A.A.Milne’s Winnie-the-Pooh with iconic decorations by E.H.Shepard.

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.

In this much-loved classic story collection Pooh gets into a tight place, nearly catches a Woozle and heads off on an ‘expotition’ to the North Pole with the other animals.

This stunning edition of A.A.Milne’s world-famous story is once again brought to life by E.H.Shepard’s beautiful decorations. Milne’s masterpiece conveys a child’s imagination like no other story before or since.
