Winnie-the-Pooh Returns in First Authorized Sequel – RETURN TO THE HUNDRED ACRE WOOD

Posted by webmaster
You most likely grew up reading, listening to, or watching the tales of Winnie-the-Pooh as a child. Pooh Bear is probably one of the most beloved storybook characters around the world and will always hold a special place in our hearts regardless of our age, so we wanted to share some exciting news about the latest happenings of our favorite honey-loving stuffed animal and all his pals.

Eighty years ago, in the publication of THE HOUSE AT POOH CORNER, Christopher Robin said goodbye to Pooh and his friends in the Hundred Acre Wood. Now they are all back for new adventures in a companion volume that truly captures the style of A. A. Milne --- a worthy sequel to THE HOUSE AT POOH CORNER and WINNIE-THE-POOH.

Now available worldwide, RETURN TO THE HUNDRED ACRE WOOD is the first authorized sequel by writer David Benedictus --- who adapted and produced the audio adaptations of Winnie-the-Pooh --- and Mark Burgess --- the illustrator of countless classic children’s characters including Paddington Bear and Winnie-the-Pooh.

Be sure to visit the RETURN TO THE HUNDRED ACRE WOOD site to discover fun facts about Winnie-the-Pooh, see the just-released cover, read the first chapter, and more!
