NEW gorgeous hardback edition of David Benedictus' sequel collection inspired by Milne’s classic stories, with Mark Burgess illustrations created in the style of E.H. Shepard's iconic art.

‘Hallo, everyone, I’m back!'

Stunning 100th anniversary hardback edition of the official sequel story collection by David Benedictus, inspired by Milne’s classic stories about everyone’s favourite bear.

The rumours are true – Christopher Robin is back in the Hundred Acre Wood. This authorised sequel to A.A. Milne’s original stories allows readers to spend a few more treasured hours with the Best Bear in All the World as he goes in search of honey, is introduced to the game of cricket and enjoys a Harvest Festival.

From the excitement of Christopher Robin’s return to the curious business of learning to play cricket, Return to the Hundred Acre Wood features all the old friends we know and love – from Pooh to Piglet, Eeyore to Owl and Tigger to Rabbit.

This 100th Anniversary range’s edition of David Benedictus’s authorised sequel to A.A. Milne’s original Winnie-the-Pooh stories is splendidly illustrated by Mark Burgess in the style of the original E.H. Shepard decorations. All of the old friends are in attendance. There’s still plenty of fun to be had in this Forest.

The stories are decorated with beautiful illustrations by Mark Burgess in the style of E.H. Shepard. Mark is uniquely suited to this having also illustrated Once There Was a Bear, The Best Bear in All the World, Tales from the Forest and Winter in the Wood.

The nation’s favourite teddy bear has been delighting generations of children for nearly 100 years. Milne’s classic children’s stories – featuring Piglet, Eeyore, Christopher Robin and, of course, Pooh himself – are gently humorous while teaching lessons about friendship and kindness.

Pooh ranks alongside other beloved characters such as Paddington Bear and Peter Rabbit as an essential part of our literary heritage. Whether you’re 5 or 55, Pooh is the bear for all ages.
