Blackstone Audio presents, from the unabridged collection "A.A. Milne's Pooh Classics," the forty-four poems from When We Were Very Young and the thirty-five poems of Now We Are Six, performed by Peter Dennis. This is the only reading of these delightful verses authorized by A.A. Milne's son, Christopher Robin.

The first of A.A. Milne's four world-famous books for children, When We Were Very Young introduced Christopher Robin to innumerable friends and has probably been read more widely than any other book of verse for children published in our time. Now We Are Six followed, becoming a modern classic in its own right.

For sheer delightfulness, the children's rhymes of A.A. Milne are in a class by themselves with their charm, humor, understanding, and irresistible rhythms.

A. A. Milne (1882-1956) is an author best known for his creation of Winnie-the-Pooh, Piglet, Tigger, and the other beloved creatures of the Hundred Acre Wood. A veteran of both World Wars, he was also a noted playwright and author of nonfiction, novels, and poetry.

Peter Dennisย (1933โ€“2009) graduated from the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art. He played leading roles in Londonโ€™s West End and throughout the United Kingdom and the United States. He also guest starred in numerous television series, including Alias, Friends, Seinfeld, and Star Trek: Voyager.

Reviews

โ€œPeter Dennis has made himself Poohโ€™s Ambassador Extraordinary and no bear has ever had a more devoted friend. So if you want to meet the real Pooh, the bear I knew, the bear my father wrote about, listen to Peter. You will not be disappointed.โ€

โ€œPeter Dennis brings to these remarkable readings a quality that goes beyond professionalism into an area we canโ€™t even begin to define.โ€

“Congratulations on your outstanding contribution to children and their families.”

โ€œRead these poems aloud and pass along (or start) a family tradition.โ€
