Now We Are Six - A. A. Milne - Bog

A treasured children's classic of 35 delightful verses captures a child's imaginings as he turns six years old. Memorably illustrated by Ernest H. Shepard, eleven of the poems feature the cuddly Pooh Bear (Winnie-the-Pooh), inspired by Shepard's son's teddy bear, Growler. These include "The Charcoal Burner," "The End," "The Engineer," "Forgotten," "The Friend," "Furry Bear," "In the Dark," "Knight-in-Armour," "The Morning Walk," "Us Two," and "Waiting at the Window." This lovely hardcover edition of Now We Are Six is British author A. A. Milne's second book of poetry, published in 1927. Best known for his books about a boy named Christopher Robin and his friendship with Winnie-the-Pooh, Milne, known primarily as a playwright, was inspired by his son, Christopher Robin Milne, and Christopher's various stuffed animals.
