The Winnie-the-Pooh stories have been loved by generations of children since Pooh, Christopher Robin, Piglet, Rabbit, Owl, Kanga, Roo and Eeyore first made their appearance in 1926. In this first volume we meet all the friends from the Hundred Acre Wood, celebrate Eeyore"s birthday, go on an "expotition" to the North Pole and lay a Heffalump trap. Accompanied by E.H. Shepard"s original illustrations in colour, this is an ideal book for bedtime stories. --Philippa Reece
