A. A. Milne

With Pooh as a guide, preschoolers discover shapes, colors, numbers, letters, and how to tell time.

Drawing from a collection of stories originally published in 1921 and chosen exclusively by the author himself, The Sunny Side gathers the best short works by the inimitable A. A. Milne, best known as the creator of Winnie-the-Pooh. Written for the satire magazine Punch, these brief stories and essays perfectly capture Milne's sly humor, beguiling social insight, and scathing wit. From "Odd Verses" to "War Sketches, " "Summer Days" to "Men of Letters,...

Includes the text of both "Winnie-the-Pooh" and "The House at Pooh Corner."

Poor Eeyore is very sad, because it is his birthday and no one has taken any notice of it. Pooh and Piglet try their best to see that a proper celebration is made. They nearly succeeded, if only Pooh hadn't gotten hungry on the way, and Piglet hadn't fallen with the balloon ...

Going on an "expotition" to discover the North Pole is a grand idea, even if no one is sure what the North Pole looks like. But no matter, with provisions to eat and songs to sing, a good time is had by all.

With Piglet trapped by the flood, his "missage in a bottle" may be his only hope. Pooh finds the bottle, but he can't read the "missage." Fortunately, Christopher Robin can, and that, along with Pooh's brilliant idea, sets the rescue mission on its wobbly way.

Pooh and his friends are trying to find out what food their new friend Tigger would like to eat.
