Pooh's Bedtime Book

Alan Alexander Milne · 1997
88/100
👍 Worth It

This is A. A. Milne's own words and E. H. Shepard's own art, curated thoughtfully for the end of the day — it doesn't get more dependable than that for a bedtime read-aloud gift. The stories and poems chosen have a genuine quieting quality, and Shepard's illustrations are simply irreplaceable in their warmth. A beautiful, lasting choice.
