Pooh is much more interesting and layered than the Disney-fied version. It's a beautiful portrait of an innocent world, the Hundred Acre Wood, and how the creatures therein face the stumbling blocks...” see full review » see other reviews » |

“This book is about Winnie-the-Pooh, as the title suggests, which Disney's loveable Winnie-the-Pooh is based upon. It is told in the form of a father telling his son, Christopher Robin, the adventures of said bear and his friends. Each chapter tells a different story and Christopher Robin, who is really the son of the author, is also a part of the stories. Other character include Piglet, Eeyore, Rabbit, Owl, and Kanga and Roo.

Several stories might be familiar to fans of Disney's Winni-the-Pooh, such as the one where Pooh tries to get honey by pretending to be a little black storm cloud and the one where Pooh gets stuck in Rabbit's front door, for example. However, some of the characters are quite different from their Disney counterpart. Rabbit, for example, isn't as much a grouch as he is in Disney's version. I was also quite surprised to find that Christopher Robin apparently owns a gun, which he uses to help Pooh down, but I guess that sort of stuff wouldn't cut vert well with Disney. Also, Piglet is rather different, personality wise, in that he's more jealous of Pooh as seen various times in the book and tries to get some attention. Pooh also is a tad bit more concerned with the fact that he's a "Bear of very little Brain" though that never deters his confidence nor bruises his feelings.
This was quite a lovely book jut to read for fun. It's absolutely adorable and funny. It's one of those books that shouldn't matter whether or not you're a kid anymore - it's still fun. It's quite lovely, very lovely in fact. All the characters are very nice and lovable.”

“Winnie the Pooh is a clever, yet whimsical children's book series. These stories were originaly bed-time stories for the author, A.A. Milne's, son Christopher Robin. Thus Christopher Robin in the stories. Many people would say that the main character in Winnie the Pooh is Pooh. I would disagree, because though the stories are about Pooh, the stories revolve around Christopher. I loved these books as a kid, and would recommend them to any young child.”
