Come with us to an Enchanted Place, a forest where Winnie-the-Pooh lived with Piglet, Rabbit, Owl, Eeyore, Kanga, and Little Roo. The stories are about Christopher Robin and these good companions having wonderful times getting in and out of trouble. It is all very exciting and, really, quite thrilling no matter how young or old you may be. It is painful to try and imagine what the world would be like without them.

Blackstone Audiobooks presents, from the unabridged collection A.A. Milne's Pooh Classics, the 10 stories of Winnie-the-Pooh performed by Peter Dennis. This is the only reading of these immortal stories authorized by A.A. Milne's son, Christopher Robin, who wrote, "Peter Dennis has made himself Pooh's Ambassador Extraordinare and no bear has ever had a more devoted friend. So if you want to meet the real Pooh, the bear I knew, the bear my father wrote about, listen to Peter."

This collection includes the chapters:
In Which We Are Introduced to Winnie-the-Pooh and Some Bees, and the Stories Begin
In Which Pooh Goes Visiting and Gets Into a Tight Place
In Which Pooh and Piglet Go Hunting and Nearly Catch a Woozle
In Which Eeyore Loses a Tail and Pooh Finds One
In Which Piglet Meets a Heffalump
In Which Eeyore Has a Birthday and Gets Two Presents
In Which Kanga and Baby Roo Come to the Forest, and Piglet Has a Bath
In Which Christopher Robin Leads an Expotition to the North Pole
In Which Piglet is Entirely Surrounded by Water
In Which Christopher Robin Gives a Pooh Party, and We Say Goodbye

A SECOND CHANCE AT INNOCENCE

Reviewed in Australia on 11 December 2013

This book is an absolute delight. Obviously written for the kids, reading Winnie The Pooh as a fully grown adult brought back so many memories and feelings of complete and utter joy that it was like you had relapsed completely back into childhood.

Some stories were silly, some were brilliant but the star of the show was of course the best bear in the world, the most lovable, huggable, adorable, sweetest, most innocent bear ever brought into existence. It all came to a head for me when Pooh came up with the idea to save Piglet from a horribly wet encounter in the driving rain and so I defy any good hearted soul to read this story and not get emotional.

At one point the stories bordered on comic farce - in a good way, of course - and all but one of the characters are an absolute joy. Of course, we don't dislike Eeyore - but you kind of have to feel sorry for the silly donkey. But maybe that is the donkey's plot in life - to exist in a state of permanent dismay. Having never been a donkey myself, I can't say. But what I can say is that WINNIE THE POOH, Christopher Robin and the entire population of the HUNDRED ACRE WOOD is a landmark of western literature and should be placed alongside the great works of Tolkien, Asimov , George RR Martin and even Jordan, and so thanks must go to the brilliant A A Milne for having the intellectual foresight of creation, and also thanks be to Amazon for making such an awesome reading experience available at such a low price.

In the book, there is an episode of the rabbit kidnapping a baby kangaroo. This sends a wrong message to children that there is nothing wrong with kidnapping.

Terrible moral to the story.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 26 July 2020

I’m a teacher and bought this book for my class in September to help with easing the children back into school and helping them if they’ve got worries. It was recommended to me.
I’m very unimpressed with the book and won’t be sharing it at all. It gives examples of worries that are inappropriate for young children “she was worried that she was getting too fat” “she worried about wars and bombs”
Essentially, the book gives a list of reasons why she shouldn’t share her problems with her parents/ siblings/ friends/ teacher. And in the end, this young child shares her problems with a stranger on a wall down the street. Completely the wrong message to be sending children in my opinion.
The idea of problems looking small when they are out in the open is a sweet one, but the narrative is completely wrong. As a small, picky, aside, the old lady then throws the empty bag away into woodland at the end of the book. Which I also don’t think is an appropriate message to be sending.

Doesn’t contain letters to take out and read

This book is full of gorgeous original Winnie the Pooh illustrations but the text has been shortened and modified slightly to make it more readable for modern audiences which is great. I adored Winnie the Pooh stories as a child but the original books are very long and wordy and not easy to read to my 2 year old. This book retains all the charm of the old stories but is nicely compact and tells a lovely simple story of friendship and kindness and good old fashioned Christmas spirit.

It’s a much smaller, thinner book than I had anticipated, and nothing like the jolly postman (there are no physical letters to take out and read) - the title can be a little misleading in this way so don’t get caught out!

Overall a very sweet book.

Honey!

In times when it seems so much is like a caricature of the Monty Python news sketch of the “Minister without portfolio”, i.e. everything has to be explained in ever more simplistic pictures and videos, a return to the traditional high-quality of the BBC radio is a relief. Intended for my grandchildren, it allows them to concentrate their own imaginations as prompted by this great story.

It is a good example of story-telling at its best, both the original book and its re-telling by the BBC.

I’ve never read Winnie-the-Pooh or any of A.A Milne’s books before but I’m familiar with the characters from the screen. So even though I hadn’t read the book before I felt like Pooh, Tiger, Rabbit, Eyeore, Piglet, Christopher Robin and the Hundred Acre Wood were dear old friends. It was a pleasure to read. The illustrations are quite sparse but lovely and of a high standard. I get why this book and other books are so popular.

Perfect reading for all ages

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 13 March 2016

What's there to say about good ol' Winnie that hasn't already been said? It's a classic book that's perfect for children and adults. Winnie-the-pooh is poignant, beautiful and timeless. The story it weaves about the adventures of Pooh is one that everyone should experience at least once. All this is only made better by the lovely drawings that help weave the story as it forms in your imagination.

There is an innocence to Winnie-the-Pooh that is almost altogether lost in the modern day and harkens back to our collective childhoods where we dream of halcyon days and dream of adventures with our friends.

This is all bolstered by the fantastic quality of the book itself (i.e the paper quality). Seriously, just buy this already!
