Editorial Reviews

"This writing business. Pencils and what-not. Over-rated, if you ask me. Silly stuff. Nothing in it." But somehow, despite Eeyore's strong opinion about the word business, Winnie the Pooh has changed the face of children's literature -- and brightened children's faces for 80 years now. This laudable record for longevity is recognized in this tastefully designed deluxe edition, which features a specially designed gold ink cover with a die-cut window that reveals the full-color art on the case cover. The text and Ernest H. Shepard's immortal illustrations are printed in full color on cream-colored stock. Three cheers for Pooh!
