Happy 80th birthday, Pooh! The Bear of Very Little Brain and his friends from the Hundred Acre Wood have delighted generations of readers since Winnie-the-Pooh was first published in 1926. This deluxe anniversary edition of Winnie-the-Pooh is the perfect way to celebrate the enduring popularity of A. A. Milne’s classic work. The interior features the unabridged text and Ernest H. Shepard’s charming illustrations in full color on cream-colored stock. The specially designed jacket sports gold ink and a die-cut window that reveals the full-color art on the case cover. It is an impressive package for new fans and collectors both. Three cheers for Pooh!

Customer Reviews
Excellent book
I bought this for my niece and it brought back memories of my childhood. Wonderful book at great price!
Classic
I bought this for my nephew, i remember having this read to me as a boy, just a fantastic classic.
Just timeless, i think its better to let them create a picture in their mind rather than sit them in front of Disney .....
The book that started it all
This is the book that started the Pooh empire. Seeing the characters as they were originally created was great, and the stories are amazing. Each chapter is a stand alone story that introduces the reader to new characters and adventures. We learn how Pooh got his name(s) and why he lives under the name 'Mr. Sanders' in the forest. The style of writing and the illustrations are great for any age and reading stories about their favorite stuffed animals is great for kids.
