Today Winnie-the-Pooh was voted the UK’s best loved childhood book character. The survey, which was commissioned by the Reading Agency, saw Pooh triumph over stiff competition from Harry Potter, Bilbo Baggins, George (from The Famous Five) Matilda (Roald Dahl), and Lucy Pevensie (from C. S. Lewis’ Narnia books), among others!
Fly high Pooh-bear!

Here are some images of (and from) the A. A. Milne books we have in the shop currently: Winnie-the-Pooh; The House at Pooh Corner; When We Were Very Young; Now We Are Six. All illustrated masterfully by E. H. Shepard. All first editions, with dust jackets. Some of the best children’s books ever written.
