This book made my day - like visiting old friends - miss being a child with these guys.

Wonderful child's intro to different colors featuring colorized versions of the original drawings of Ernest Shepard from AA Milne's Pooh books. Sadly, No one's Pooh Bear is wearing Disney's Pooh Red shirt since Dis owns the copyright. But the fun of Milne is very much intact. Eeyore is gray, says the book, Rabbit is Brown, Piglet wears a Green sweater, and Pooh is Gold. I agree: Pooh is certainly Gold!
Three stars
Color our world a "Hundred Acres" of Pooh Gold!

Luka likes turning the pages independently, but I am not sure he loves the book.

Really bad writing, and not technically EH Shepard's art. There are better books that have better writing with at least Shepard's actual art. Really bad writing, and not technically EH Shepard's art. There are better books that have better writing with at least Shepard's actual art. ...more

We're launching six weeks of story times based on A. A. Milne's classic stories about Christopher Robin and all his friends in the Hundred Acre Woods. We began with this story because it pictures the characters.

Pre-school age children love recognizing and naming colors. For fun we stopped to look around as each color was introduced to see if any of the children were wearing them.

Its ok. I don't think it is direct at all and this is only for the child who already knows winnie the pooh. It is classic pooh but maybe colors were not what they should have tried to teach. Ages Birth + Its ok. I don't think it is direct at all and this is only for the child who already knows winnie the pooh.

I loved this book because each page is a different character from Winnie the Pooh and it points out the colors of a different object every time. This is a good one for infants to read over and over until they are toddlers so they can relate the colors to the characters or animal!

Alan Alexander Milne (pronounced /ˈmɪln/) was an English author, best known for his books about the teddy bear Winnie-the-Pooh and for various children's poems.

Alan Alexander Milne (pronounced /ˈmɪln/) was an English author, best known for his books about the teddy bear Winnie-the-Pooh and for various children's poems.

A. A. Milne was born in Kilburn, London, to parents Vince Milne and Sarah Marie Milne (née Heginbotham) and grew up at Henley House School, 6/7 Mortimer Road (now Crescent), Kilburn, a small public school run by his father. One of his teachers was H. G. Wells who taught there in 1889–90. Milne attended Westminster School and Trinity College, Cambridge, where he studied on a mathematics scholarship. While there, he edited and wrote for Granta, a student magazine. He collaborated with his brother Kenneth and their articles appeared over the initials AKM. Milne's work came to the attention of the leading British humour magazine Punch, where Milne was to become a contributor and later an assistant editor.

Milne joined the British Army in World War I and served as an officer in the Royal Warwickshire Regiment and later, after a debilitating illness, the Royal Corps of Signals. He was discharged on February 14, 1919.

After the war, he wrote a denunciation of war titled Peace with Honour (1934), which he retracted somewhat with 1940's War with Honour. During World War II, Milne was one of the most prominent critics of English writer P. G. Wodehouse, who was captured at his country home in France by the Nazis and imprisoned for a year. Wodehouse made radio broadcasts about his internment, which were broadcast from Berlin. Although the light-hearted broadcasts made fun of the Germans, Milne accused Wodehouse of committing an act of near treason by cooperating with his country's enemy. Wodehouse got some revenge on his former friend by creating fatuous parodies of the Christopher Robin poems in some of his later stories, and claiming that Milne "was probably jealous of all other writers.... But I loved his stuff."

He married Dorothy "Daphne" de Sélincourt in 1913, and their only son, Christopher Robin Milne, was born in 1920. In 1925, A. A. Milne bought a country home, Cotchford Farm, in Hartfield, East Sussex. During World War II, A. A. Milne was Captain of the Home Guard in Hartfield & Forest Row, insisting on being plain 'Mr. Milne' to the members of his platoon. He retired to the farm after a stroke and brain surgery in 1952 left him an invalid and by August 1953 "he seemed very old and disenchanted".

He was 74 years old when he passed away in 1956.
