Overview
Let's celebrate 100 years since the birth of Christopher Robin! Christopher Robin lives behind a green door in the Hundred Acre Wood. He likes catching Woozles, leading expeditions and throwing parties with Piglet, Rabbit, Eeyore and, of course, his very best friend, Winnie-the-Pooh. This charming collection of stories and poems features the wonderful adventures that Christopher Robin has with Winnie-the-Pooh and his friends in the Hundred Acre Wood. The stories are selected from A.A.Milne's Winnie-the-Pooh, The House at Pooh Corner, When We Were Very Young & Now We Are Six. These extraordinary tales of a Boy and his Bear, are accompanied by E.H.Shepard's beautiful, timeless illustrations. Christopher Robin became a movie star in his own right in 2018 with the release of Christopher Robin, a live-action film that follows a grown-up Christopher (Ewan McGregor) as he reunites with his childhood playmates Winnie-the-Pooh, Piglet, Tigger, Eeyore, Rabbit and many more – returning to The Hundred Acre Wood for the first time since he was a boy. This collection of favourite stories and poems is the perfect companion for fans of the film and of Christopher Robin and friends, teaching lessons of friendship and reflecting the power of a child's imagination.

Author Information
A.A.Milne was born in London in 1882 and became a highly successful writer of plays, poems and novels. He based Winnie-the-Pooh, Piglet and friends on the real nursery toys of his son Christopher Robin and published the first book of their adventures together in 1926. Since then, Pooh has become a world-famous bear, and Milne’s stories have been translated into seventy-two languages. E.H.Shepard was born in London in 1879. He was an artist, illustrator and cartoonist and went on to draw the original decorations to accompany Milne’s classic stories, earning him the name ‘the man who drew Pooh’.
