Return to the Hundred Acre Wood
Remember when Christopher Robin said good-bye to Winnie-the-Pooh and made him promise never to forget him in The House at Pooh Corner? It’s hard to believe that that was eighty years ago! Now, Winnie-the-Pooh, Eeyore, Piglet, Tigger and the rest of the beloved, original characters from the Hundred Acre Wood reunite for the first time in decades in this wonderful collection of all-new Winnie-the-Pooh adventures. With David Benedictus and illustrator Mark Burgess’ enchanting tales and charming artwork that perfectly capture the spirit of A. A. Milne and Ernest H. Shepard’s cherished classics, Return to the Hundred Acre Wood is the book fans of the little boy and his bear have been waiting for. A. A. Milne would be proud! (Ages 4-9)

Very enjoyable

Having been raised and raising my children on Christopher Robin, I was a little pessimistic about a "re-creation" of his world. However, my fears were assuaged, as I again entered the 100 Acre Wood. It was very enjoyable. If today's children are not familiar with the previous books, this is a good introduction, and might be an incentive for them to go back and read the originals. It would be best for them to read it with a parent.

I always enjoy reading Pooh Bear and friends stories. The essence of A.A. Milne's great tales remain intact in his stories for Christopher Robin in this new book. It is relaxing to escape our busy world enjoying these unique writings of the Return to the Hundred Acre Wood. Enjoy!
