The World According to Winnie-the-Pooh

I have been reading the Pooh books for decades, and the older I get, the more I find them full of wisdom! Pooh continues to fascinate young and old alike, with his quirky take on the world. Long may Pooh, Piglet, Tigger, and all the other denizens of the 100 Acre Wood, survive.

A.A, Milne (1882-1956)created these stories for his son Christopher Robin, never dreaming that they would become so hugely popular, entertaining generations of children and adults alike. And let us not forget the classic illustrations by Ernest Shepherd (1879-1976), which for me exemplify the characters populating the wonderful books.

Quote	On Monday...	Down from the forest
Hostile intent	Looking for somebody	"Planting a honeycomb"
Anybody home?	"When I left it this morning it was there, and when I came back it wasn't."	Stoutness Exercises
"It's snowing still..."	"There is no hurry..."	"That hole means Rabbit..."
The more it SNOWS	No earthquakes lately	Go away, I'm thinking
I thought you were out	No brain	Getting thin
Wobbly spelling	A little smackerel of something	Measles and Buttered Toast
How to spell birthday	Very Small Beetle	Unless it's a fish
Piglet's nose	Kanga	A bunch of violets
Funny things, Accidents	Jump!	Seeing Piglet
The reason for bees	Enjoy yourself	Fierce Heffalumps
Owl's house	Jagulars	The sun was so delightfully warm
A Thoughtful Spot	Eeyore	Eeyore's house
An Expotition	A woozle	he's out, said pooh
What would I do if it wasn't for you?	Rather beneath Owl	"I just wanted to be sure of you."
Everything looks the same in a mist	"Hallo, Rabbit, is that you?"	You never can tell with bees....
"Haycorn"	Supposing a tree fell down...	String
You never can tell with paw-marks	"That buzzing noise means something..."	"The three foxes"

Me again! These are so beautiful... I could comment on each delightful image and its reference to the precious words in the stories (and a few poems). I do love them and think there is a book there - and any beautiful book for children is always loved by adults! You have presented these brilliantly. VVV

Have just responded to this fantastic gallery on one of the images (by mistake, I thought it was the entire gallery). Anyway I simply love it and am a passionate fan of A A Milne. V

This fabulous Christine. I have a friend who always greets with "Oh it's you". I can't wait to reply "Let's pretend it's not and see what happens". Michael from down the way.

What a superb idea for a series!! This is truly delightful. I love all the characters, their follies and their gentle and humourous wisdom. V++ “When you are a Bear of Very Little Brain, and you Think of Things, you find sometimes that a Thing which seemed very Thingish inside you is quite different when it gets out into the open and has other people looking at it.”
