Return to the Hundred Acre Wood for the further adventures of Winnie-the-Pooh and his friends!

The House at Pooh Corner, a follow-up novel to Winnie-the-Pooh (1926), brings readers back to the Hundred Acre Wood and the lovable Pooh, along with his friends Eeyore, Piglet, Roo, Owl, Kanga, and Christopher Robin-as well as a new face: Tigger. Each of the ten chapters sees these characters embark on a humorous adventure involving misunderstandings, mishaps, and (ultimately) a happy conclusion. With charismatic illustrations by renowned children's illustrator E. H. Shepard, these stories have become a staple on the shelves of young readers everywhere. Also included in this volume is Now We Are Six, a collection of thirty-five poems written for children.



Autorentext

Born in London, A. A. Milne attended a small, independent school run by his father. He went on to Trinity College, Cambridge, graduating in 1903 with a B.A. in Mathematics. His articles for a student magazine gained attention from the popular British magazine Punch, where he became a regular contributor and later, an assistant editor. Milne was primarily a playwright until his two books about a boy name Christopher Robin-named after his son, Christopher Robin Milne (1920-96)-and characters inspired by his son's stuffed animals (led by a teddy bear named Winnie-the-Pooh) overshadowed his previous work. A veteran of World War I and II, Milne died at his home in Sussex in 1956, a couple weeks after his 74th birthday.
