The Best Bear in All the World
What's This Book About
Publisher Summary
For the 90th anniversary of Winnie-the-Pooh, a sequel featuring new stories and a new character from the Hundred Acre Wood.
Now a New York Times Bestseller.
The Trustees of the Pooh Properties have commissioned four authors to write in the timeless style of A.A. Milne to create a quartet of charming new adventures for Winnie-the-Pooh, Christopher Robin, and their friends. Winter, Spring, Summer, and Fall: take a trip back to the Hundred Acre Wood with a collection of tales sure to delight year-round.
One story finds Winnie-the-Pooh and Piglet on a quest to discover the “Sauce of the Nile” (they suspect it’s apple). And in another, all the animals rally around poor Eeyore when he thinks he sees another donkey eyeing his clover. The winter story features a new penguin character, based on a stuffed toy owned by Christopher Robin Milne himself. Readers of all ages will love rediscovering old friends and making new ones in this essential new volume of Pooh stories.
The book feature beautiful color artwork in the style of Ernest H. Shepard by Mark Burgess.

What Questions Should I Ask My Child
This classic book has some great stories demonstrating communication. Ask your child if they remember any parts where there was confusion because someone didn’t understand a word or hear it correctly (e.g. Heffalump; sauce of the Nile).
Talk about diversity with your child by asking how Pooh had to learn about Penguin’s customs (e.g. sledding).
Trusted Reviews & Ratings
I love these stories based off of the original Winnie the Pooh, and love that it’s divided up into four stories with the four seasons. Pooh is always so positive and looks for the good in everything, there’s so much wisdom from the little sayings throughout the story. I think Pooh is a great example of choosing to look at the bright side and be happy. :) Plus, I was surprised by how high quality this book is! The illustrations throughout are also gorgeous.
