Gertie is a prime example of a goose who thinks she knows best but
soon realises the consequences of her actions. However, by this
point, it is too late and she has to use her initiative to get
herself out of a sticky situation. For ages 3-8 years old. This
sweet, entertaining story with beautiful hand drawn illustrations,
helps to reinforce the idea that children's parents or guardians
often know what is best for them, and when asking their children to
do something, it's usually for good reason! This book helps promote
the idea of the wisdom of elders, whilst growing independence and
confidence in one's own abilities, in a bedtime story that everyone
can enjoy.

A brand-new Winnie-the-Pooh story, featuring the best-loved
characters from the Hundred Acre Wood. Whatever we do, there's
always two, there's Winnie-the-Pooh plus Me. And Pooh said, 'That
is very true.' But sort of wondered if I knew, it was two once, but
then it grew... Someone has come along to join Winnie-the-Pooh and
Christopher Robin on their adventure, but who could it be? It can't
be Kanga and Roo - they're sailing a boat - and it can't be Owl,
because he's at home. Could it be Heffalumps who want to eat Pooh's
beloved honey? Or perhaps Pooh and Christopher Robin are
accompanied by a pair of friends who are never far away on a sunny
day. With a gentle rhyming story by bestselling author Jeanne
Willis, inspired by A. A. Milne's classic poem 'Us Two' from Now We
Are Six, and charming illustrations by Mark Burgess, in the style
of E. H. Shepard, this authorised sequel is the perfect gift for
anyone who loves the enchanting world of Winnie-the-Pooh and
friends.
