Customer Rating:      Summary: I'm fifteen and I LOVE these stories!!! Comment: I am fifteen and I LOVE these stories!!! They really are just that good!
Each story makes you wonder what intriguing adventure or silly mishap the next will hold in store for you. Whenever I take out the book or simply look at the cover, I get a comfortable, warm feeling inside; because I know that each story is filled with the timeless, treasured tales of a talented author. I was somewhat surprised (and a little humored), however, in the manner in which the characters sometimes acted and spoke. For example, when Rabbit, Piglet, and Pooh are trying to think of a plan to capture Baby Roo (which is also a little disturbing), Rabbit "gently" tells Pooh that he "has no Brain" and Piglet "no Pluck." Why must he be so harsh? Eeyore, though, surprised me the most. The most I knew of Eeyore from Disney's viewpoint was that he was a poor, sad, and mostly forgotten creature. I always felt sad for him. However, after reading the stories, it is very difficult to feel bad for him when he is constantly going around throwing insults whenever he gets the chance. For example, when Piglet goes to visit Eeyore to give him some violets, he sees Eeyore staring at three sticks on the ground that are in the shape of the letter "A". Eeyore proceeds to tell Piglet that the "A" represents "Education, it means all the things that you and Pooh haven't got...but to the Educated--mark this, little Piglet--to the Educated, not meaning Poohs and Piglets, it's a great and glorious A." See my point? But overall, it is a very satisfying story that no child (or adult, for that matter) should miss out on. What is also a great plus is that it's a beautiful and durable hardcover edition that also has a ribbon bookmark.
Customer Rating:      Summary: My kids love this book. Comment: I bought this book years ago for my oldest son when he was only 2 years old. He loved it immediately and still loves it. This is a family favorite. I need to get a new one since the old one has gotten a bit worn.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Horrible! Where is the History!? Comment: Okay, first I'm a huge fan of Winnies Hollywood career and I also thought his apperance in the movie Top Gun as Tom Cruise's stunt double was amazing! Also playing Elizabeth Turner in the popular TV series, Pirates of the Mediterranean, was an astonishing role. But was that ever mentioned in the book? No! And that is what makes me lie awake in bed at night, hoping to one day claim vengeance on the editor and publisher. If you like this book, I will hunt you down and make you throw the book into a fire, do the tango, sing zip-a-dee-doo-da-zippada-da, then force you to alphabetize my sock drawer! So beware, and always know, I, Fartsy Magee, am always watching you. Right now your scrating your butt like a madman. I'm watching. Watching. Watching. Still watching. Okay, anyway I'm watching you every day. And I'm watching you like a blind man watching his glasses. BEWARE!!!!!!!!! BEWARE!!!!!!!!
But otherwise a great book and the author deserves a lot of credit.
