When Winnie-the-Pooh and his friends are playing Poohsticks one day, they're most surprised to see a calm, dignified Eeyore floating out beneath the bridge... When Winnie-the-Pooh and his friends are playing Poohsticks one day, they're most surprised to see a calm, dignified Eeyore floating out beneath the bridge ... This story first appeared in A. A.Milne's The House at Pooh Corner, accompanied by E. H. Shepard's original illustrations. Milne's classic children's stories - featuring Piglet, Eeyore and, of course, Pooh himself - are both heart-warming and funny, teaching lessons of friendship and reflecting the power of a child's imagination like no other story before or since. Pooh ranks alongside other beloved characters such as Paddington Bear, and Peter Rabbit as an essential part of our literary heritage. Whether you're 5 or 55, Pooh is the bear for all ages.
