Absolutely fabulous! My now 11 year old son and I have been reading this very slowly over the course of a year or more---a chapter every couple of months or so, and tonight we've finished. Such a sweet story book---I'm so glad we had that time. Ours is a lovely 1944 hardback edition with a gift inscription written inside: "Mary Beth from Cousin Arthur 1944". Charming bunch of stories for children with some amusement for the adults reading as well. The narrator nails the questions and logic of a child and manages to inject a silly humour they'll love. Although I was surprised by the gun. I mean Christopher Robin's what 4 years? What on earth made Milne think of adding that detail? Shows how times have changed, that's for sure. My favourite part was the "deception which we are practising on these bees". 4 stars. “It’s like this,” he said. “When you go after honey with a balloon, the great thing is not to let the bees know you’re coming. Now, if you have a green balloon, they might think you were only part of the tree, and not notice you, and if you have a blue balloon, they might think you were only part of the sky, and not notice you, and the question is: Which is most likely?” “Wouldn’t they notice you underneath the balloon?” you asked. “They might or they might not,” said Winnie-the-Pooh. “You never can tell with bees.” He thought for a moment and said: “I shall try to look like a small black cloud. That will deceive them.” “Then you had better have the blue balloon,” you said; and so it was decided. Milne, A. A.. Winnie-the-Pooh (AmazonClassics Edition) (pp. 10-11). AmazonClassics. Kindle Edition. “Isn’t that fine?” shouted Winnie-the-Pooh down to you. “What do I look like?” “You look like a Bear holding on to a balloon,” you said. “Not,” said Pooh anxiously, “—not like a small black cloud in a blue sky?” “Not very much.” “Ah, well, perhaps from up here it looks different. And, as I say, you never can tell with bees.” Milne, A. A.. Winnie-the-Pooh (AmazonClassics Edition) (p. 11). AmazonClassics. Kindle Edition. “Christopher Robin!” “Yes?” “Have you an umbrella in your house?” “I think so.” “I wish you would bring it out here, and walk up and down with it, and look up at me every now and then, and say ‘Tut-tut, it looks like rain.’ I think, if you did that, it would help the deception which we are practising on these bees.” Milne, A. A.. Winnie-the-Pooh (AmazonClassics Edition) (pp. 12-13). AmazonClassics. Kindle Edition. “Christopher Robin, you must shoot the balloon with your gun. Have you got your gun?” “Of course I have,” you said. “But if I do that, it will spoil the balloon,” you said. “But if you don’t,” said Pooh, “I shall have to let go, and that would spoil me.” When he put it like this, you saw how it was, and you aimed very carefully at the balloon, and fired. “Ow!” said Pooh. “Did I miss?” you asked. “You didn’t exactly miss,” said Pooh, “but you missed the balloon.” Milne, A. A.. Winnie-the-Pooh (AmazonClassics Edition) (pp. 15-16). AmazonClassics. Kindle Edition. (4.5 / 5) (My rating is specific to the audiobook version releasing from Dreamscape Media in 2022.) It can be difficult to review a beloved classic, and that is the case for this book, even though I haven't read it before myself. I've read parts, but never the whole thing. Of course, I've seen many of the different cartoons, especially the older ones that were more based on this book. So it was nice to read it all the way through and see the source material for the first time. I thoroughly enjoyed it! The story itself was wonderful, and the narrator did an overall great job. Of course, it can be difficult to let go of the voices we're used to after so many viewings of the movies and television show, but I did my best not to compare it to that, as that really wouldn't be fair. For most of the characters, and for the narrator voice itself, I thought it was done well. My only issue was with his voice for Piglet, which was a little unpleasant. Thank you to Netgalley and Dreamscape Media for providing me a copy of this book to review.
