Description

Curl up with a A. A. Milnes classic book of poetry for children, Now We Are Six. This work includes poems for children which feature Pooh helping Christopher Robin with his schoolwork (if helping is the word). It is an evocation of childhood, through the eyes of the six-year-old Robin. Featuring E. H. Shepards original illustrations, Now We Are Six is a heart-warming and funny introduction to childrens poetry, offering the same sense of humour, imagination and whimsy that weve come to expect from his bestselling books about Winnie-the-Pooh, that Bear of Very Little Brain.

Author Bio

A.A.Milne was born in London in 1882 and became a highly successful writer of plays, poems and novels. He based Winnie-the-Pooh, Piglet and friends on the real nursery toys of his son Christopher Robin and published the first book of their adventures together in 1926. Since then, Pooh has become a world-famous bear, and Milnes stories have been translated into seventy-two languages.

E.H.Shepard was born in London in 1879. He was an artist, illustrator and cartoonist and went on to draw the original decorations to accompany Milnes classic stories, earning him the name the man who drew Pooh.
