Customer Reviews

cute but lacking
I do like that it is a board book and therefore child safe for my 2 1/2 year old, she loves to look at the illustrations, as they are on every page and very well done. BUT as previously stated by others, this book is essentially exerts from all the other Pooh books. These exerts are cute but there are some that end rather abruptly leaving one hanging. Even though my daughter knows all the Pooh stories by heart she was rather bemused on a few of the pages when they ended without resolution.

I LOVE IT!!!!!!!
My thirty year old grandson got me this book and I LOVED IT!!!!! My wife read it to me out loud and I enjoyed it very much. It did take us a year of steady reading but it was worth it. To all those 87 year olds out there, get this book!!!

Unsuitable for Toddlers
I purchased both My First Winnie-The-Poor and Bedtime with Winnie-The-Poor for my 2 year old granddaughter who is beginning to look at Pooh stuffed animals,etc. These are board books, designed for the very young, but these two books are simply scattered exerpts from the full length book or "Now We Are Six." Some can stand alone, but others simply start with a paragraph from Pooh and end a few paragraphs later with no "ending" understandable for a 2-3 year old. A child fully able to appreciate the exerpts would be better off having the REAL Pooh read to him or her by an adult.
