Winnie-the-Pooh

Author: A A Milne
Illustrator: E H Shepard
Publisher: Egmont

A well-established classic which many children may have met only through Disney cartoons. Although its gentle humour and comforting cosiness may be more suited to the intimacy of the home, it is good to have it in school so that more children have an opportunity to meet the original text complete with E.H. Shepard’s illustrations, discuss the humanised characters of the toy animals, and hear Alan Bennett’s reading of it on CD.
