  A.A. Milne's first collection of stories about his son's endearing and not-very-bright toy bear and his friends, "Winnie-the-Pooh" is the original source material for one of children's literature's most enduring and beloved characters. Edward Bear (also known as Winnie) is the simple, easy-going companion to young Christopher Robin. He and his friends (Christopher Robin's other stuffed animals - Eeyore the Donkey, Piglet, Rabbit, Owl, Kanga and Baby Roo) are the inhabitants of the imaginary Hundred Acre Wood. We follow Pooh Bear as he tries to extract honey from a beehive, overstays his welcome at Rabbit's house, attempts to find Eeyore's missing tail and hunts for the elusive Heffalump.Sweet-natured, full of sly humor and enhanced with illustrations by the original artist, E.H. Shepard, "Winnie-the-Pooh" has remained a classic of children's literature for decades and the characters have been immortalized in countless screen and television adaptations.The stories are presented here in their original and unabridged form.
