A new collection of A. A. Milne’s short stories and sketches for grown-ups. Collected in full for the first time, they are an epiphany, and show Milne’s renowned charm, concision and whimsical flair in all their brilliance. He paints memorable scenes, from a children’s birthday party, to an accidental encounter with murder, and a case of blackmail – often with an unexpected twist. But he also deals in poignancy, from the girl who pulls the wool over her boyfriend’s eyes, to a first dance and first disappointment or family reunion and domestic dissonance. Beguiling and evocative, Milne’s thought-provoking stories will make you see his works for children in a whole new light.
This beautiful postcard set includes 100 famous scenes from the Hundred Acre Wood from the pages of the original books by A.A.Milne and E.H.Shepard. It makes a perfect gift. A.A.Milne's stories about Pooh and his forest friends with decorations by E.H.Shepard have been loved by generations of children and their parents since the publication of Winnie-the-Pooh in 1926. The famous bear truly is The Bear for All Ages.
The adventures of a group of friends, pre-war, with far too much time on their hands. The Rabbits, as they call themselves, are Archie Mannering, his sister Myra, Samuel Simpson, Thomas of the Admiralty, Dahlia Blair and the narrator, with occasional guests. Their conversation is almost entirely frivolous, their activity vacillates between immensely energetic and happily lazy, and their social mores are surprisingly progressive. Originally published as sketches in Punch, the Rabbits’ escapades are a charming portrait of middle-class antics on the brink of being shattered by World War I, and fail entirely to take themselves seriously. So here they all are. Whatever their crimes, they assure you that they won’t do it again – A. A. Milne
