Talented author Jane Riordan has written this wonderful collection of winter stories that are perfect for Pooh fans of all ages to read in the cold winter months.

'Winter ... winter ... winter is coming. Quickly, quickly, winter is nearly here,' say whispering voices around the Forest. But who is Winter, Pooh and his friends wonder, and how should they be welcomed?

It seems Christopher Robin has a lot to teach his friends about this chillly, magical season, so he sets about giving Pooh the most memorable winter ever; with secret surprises for Christmas and a New Year's Eve midnight feast.

Step into a wintery wonderland with Winnie-the-Pooh and friends in this authorised sequel full of snowflakes, sneezes and secret surprises!

Jane has a strong pedigree writing in the style of A.A.Milne, having also created Once There was a Bear, Winnie-the-Pooh Meets the King and Tales from the Forest.

The stories are beautifully illustrated by Mark Burgess in the style of E.H.Shepard. He also illustrated the other Pooh prequel and sequel collections.

The nation's favourite teddy bear has been delighting generations of children for over 95 years. Milne's classic children's stories - featuring Piglet, Eeyore, Christopher Robin and, of course, Pooh himself - are gently humorous while teaching lessons about friendship and kindness.

Pooh ranks alongside other beloved character 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.
