Overview
Join Winnie-the-Pooh and friends for a visit to the Natural History Museum in this beautiful special edition storybook. ‘The Dippywhat-cus?’ asked Pooh. ‘Is she the one with the teeth?’ When Winnie-the-Pooh has an outing to The Natural History Museum, he comes across some very, very old dinosaurs with rather long names… We all have a place in our hearts for the adventures of Winnie-the-Pooh told by A.A.Milne in Winnie-the-Pooh and The House at Pooh Corner. This heart-warming story is from the authorised prequel Once There Was a Bear written by highly talented author Jane Riordan in the style of A.A.Milne. Jane Riordan has a strong pedigree in writing in the style of A.A.Milne, having also created the highly successful Winnie-the-Pooh Meets the King, Winnie-the-Pooh Meets the Queen and the re-issue edition Winnie-the-Pooh Goes to London. The story features 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, Return to the Hundred Acre Wood and The Best Bear in All the World. 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.
