Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Happy 90th birthday, to one of the world's most beloved icons of children's literature, Winnie-the-Pooh!
Since 1926, Winnie-the-Pooh and his friends--Piglet, Owl, Tigger, and the ever doleful Eeyore--have endured as the unforgettable creations of A.A. Milne, who wrote this book for his son, Christopher Robin, and Ernest H. Shepard, who lovingly gave Pooh and his companions shape.
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.
"Winnie-the-Pooh is a joy; full of solemn idiocies and the sort of jokes one weeps over helplessly, not even knowing why they are so funny, and with it all the real wit and tenderness which alone could create a priceless little masterpiece." Saturday Review, 1926
The adventures of Christopher Robin and his friends, in which Pooh Bear uses a balloon to get honey, Piglet meets a Heffalump, and Eeyore has a birthday.
In which we are introduced to Winnie-the-Pooh and some bees, and the stories begin -- In which Pooh goes visiting and gets into a tight place -- In which Pooh and Piglet go hunting and nearly catch a Woozle -- In which Eeyore loses a tail and Pooh finds one -- In which Piglet meets a Heffalump -- In which Eeyore has a birthday and gets two presents -- In which Kanga and Baby Roo come to the forest, and Piglet has a bath -- In which Christopher Robin leads an expotition to the North Pole -- In which Piglet is entirely surrounded by water -- In which Christopher Robin give Pooh a party, and we say good-bye.
