"They're changing guard at Buckingham Palace - Christopher Robin went down with Alice."Curl up with A.A.Milne's classic book of poetry for children, When We Were Very Young. This is the first volume of rhymes written especially for children by Milne - as popular now as when they were first written.This collection is a heart-warming and funny introduction to children's poetry, offering the same sense of humour, imagination and whimsy that we've come to expect from Milne's favourite books about Winnie-the-Pooh, that Bear of Very Little Brain.This book is all the more special due to E.H.Shepard's decorations, which are shown in full, glorious colour. They are truly iconic and contributed to him being known as 'the man who drew Pooh'.Do you own all the classic Pooh titles?Winnie-the-PoohThe House at Pooh CornerWhen We Were Very YoungNow We Are SixReturn to the Hundred Acre WoodThe Best Bear in All the WorldOnce There Was a BearThe nation's favourite teddy bear has been delighting generations of children for over 95 years.

Whether you're 5 or 55, Pooh is the bear for all ages.

Alan Alexander Milne, conocido como A. A. Milne, fue un escritor británico nacido en 1882, célebre por crear el universo de Winnie-the-Pooh. Antes de alcanzar fama mundial en la literatura infantil, desarrolló una sólida carrera como dramaturgo y colaborador de la revista Punch, destacándose por su ingenio y sentido del humor. Sin embargo, fue la publicación de las historias del entrañable oso Pooh, inspiradas en su hijo Christopher Robin, la que lo convirtió en un autor imprescindible dentro de la narrativa para niños.

El éxito de Pooh y sus amigos —como Piglet, Tigger e Ígor— definió gran parte de su legado, aunque Milne también escribió novelas, ensayos y poesía. Obras como The House at Pooh Corner consolidaron su impacto cultural, trascendiendo generaciones y adaptándose a múltiples formatos. Su estilo sencillo, cálido y profundamente humano le permitió capturar la esencia de la infancia con una naturalidad que sigue vigente hasta hoy.
