What Parents Need to Know

About The Complete Tales & Poems of Winnie-the-Pooh

Parents need to know that there is nothing to be concerned about here, and much to celebrate. Parents should also know that this is very different from the garish, noisy, and commercialized Disney versions of late, and that the reading and language levels are much higher than the Disney cartoons might indicate.

    Wonderful Classic

    I've read this book from birth to all my girls and we go back to it again and again. It enriches their minds and paints wonderful pictures and sweet childhood images. I definitely recommend it to everyone no matter what the age!
