The nation’s favourite teddy bear has been delighting generations of children for 100 years.
Milne’s classic children’s stories – featuring Tigger, Piglet, Eeyore, Christopher Robin and, of course, Pooh himself – are both heart-warming and funny, teaching lessons of friendship and reflecting the power of a child’s imagination like no other story before or since.
Pooh ranks alongside other beloved characters 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.

Reviews for ‘Winnie-the-Pooh Meets the King’:
‘That much loved little bear Winnie-the-Pooh is on a trip to London with his chums Eeyore and Piglet in Winnie-the-Pooh Meets the King, a colourful coronation story for slightly older children aged five or six. Clutching his acorn snack, Winnie climbs up to the balcony of Buckingham Palace to get a good view and he meets – well who do you think! The newly crowned King asks Winnie if he may have the acorn snack to plant in the palace garden. Of course he can – and by the way where’s Eeyore?
This gentle tale, written by Jane Riordan and Andrew Grey, would, I think have won the approval of AA Milne and EH Shepard.’, Newburytoday
