What Our Customers Say...

Description

First Edition, Publishers' Original Binding, Signed, Very Scarce

Signed by both Milne and E H Shepard to the title page. Shepard's signature is dated 1933.

A superior copy of this Tauchnitz edition, which was published several years after Methuen's first edition of 1926. 

Milne was a prolific author and is now best-remembered for his creation of Winnie-The-Pooh and his many friends. This is the first collection of stories containing Winnie the Pooh, Piglet, Eeyore, Owl, Rabbit, Kanga and Roo. Tigger did not appear until 'The House at Pooh Corner'. 

A charming collection of ten children's stories featuring this famous character. To this collection there are classic tales such as when Winnie gets stuck in Rabbit's door, Piglet meeting a Heffalump, and Pooh meeting some bees.
