‘The Dippywhat-cus?’ asked Pooh. ‘Is she the one with the teeth?’

When Winnie-the-Pooh has an outing to The Natural History Museum, he comes across some very, very old dinosaurs with rather long names…

We all have a place in our hearts for the adventures of Winnie-the-Pooh told by A.A.Milne in Winnie-the-Pooh and The House at Pooh Corner. This heart-warming story is from the authorised prequel Once There Was a Bear written by highly talented author Jane Riordan in the style of A.A.Milne.

• Jane Riordan has a strong pedigree in writing in the style of A.A.Milne, having also created the highly successful Winnie-the-Pooh Meets the King, Winnie-the-Pooh Meets the Queen and the re-issue edition Winnie-the-Pooh Goes to London.
• The story features beautiful illustrations by Mark Burgess in the style of E.H.Shepard. Mark is uniquely suited to this having also illustrated Once There Was a Bear, Return to the Hundred Acre Wood and The Best Bear in All the World.
• The nation’s favourite teddy bear has been delighting generations of children for 100 years. Milne’s classic children’s stories – featuring Piglet, Eeyore, Christopher Robin and, of course, Pooh himself – are gently humorous while teaching lessons about friendship and kindness.
• Pooh ranks alongside other beloved character such as Paddington Bear, and Peter Rabbit as an essential part of our literary heritage. Whether you’re 5 or 55, Pooh is the bear for all ages.
