Summary: Read to Your Children
Comment: In my opinion this set is one of the most important pieces of literature from the Western world. I buy this set often as a gift for friends, who are just starting their families. I read these books to my son from day one and hope my friends will do the same. I encourage everyone I know to read this and other books to their children.

Comment: I have given two sets of these books away as gifts. I just hope the recipients appreciate them and take good care of them.

Summary: A.A. Milne & Ernest Shepard
Comment: Milne's classic children's books are perfectly illustrated by Shepard's clever line drawings. The originals are so superior to the Disney version that they are in a different league altogether. All children should hear the Pooh stories read by a loving adult. And the adult can enjoy Milne's sly humor on a separate plane from the child's appreciation.

Summary: Indispensable childhood reading
Comment: These books were purchased for grandchildren. I grew up having these read to me, read them all over & over to my own five, and now to the grandchildren.
A. A. Milne uses wonderful language, humor, suspense, making these books and their wisdom last into adulthood - we all have favorite quotes often used to fit specific situations. To this family, they represent the very best childhood literature.
Customer Rating: 
Summary: Great gift!
Comment: I bought this for my niece, who will be three in January. Still a little old for her, but my sister and brother-in-law are very excited about reading aloud to her!

Editorial Reviews:

Stop everything! If at least one copy of each of these classics is not in a prominent place on your bookshelf, your home and your progeny's childhood is incomplete. Winnie-the-Pooh and his friends--blustery old Owl, bouncy Tigger, clever Christopher Robin, glum Eeyore, and the rest--have been a staple of children's literature for over 70 years in A.A. Milne's Winnie-the-Pooh and The House at Pooh Corner. And Milne's immortal collections of children's verse, When We Were Very Young and Now We Are Six, have soothed many a savage beast at bedtime with such incomparable delights as "If I Were King" and "Us Two." All four of these classics, complete with Ernest H. Shepard's original illustrations, are gathered here in a handsome boxed set. These hardcover editions will most certainly be a cherished legacy to be handed down for generations to come. After all, as Rabbit says solemnly one day, "Without Pooh, the adventure would be impossible." (Ages 3 to 103) --Emilie Coulter
