Book Reviews of Beyond the World of Pooh: Selections from the Memoirs of Christopher Milne (Winnie-The-Pooh Collection)

Book Review: very dry
Summary: 2 Stars

This was a tough book to read. My father, aunt, and I are all avis readers and fans of Milne and all things Pooh. But this book was very dry and agonizingly slow. Interesting in bits and pieces, but none of us could finish the book. In my family that is a rarity for any book. It is really about the life of the son of the original author of the Pooh books. You do get a usual sense of the frustration of those who have famous parents here. The bset thing about the book was the 6 picutres in the book. THey feature the original pooh toys, the real pooh sticks bridge, and the real hollow tree in England that A.A. Milne used in his stories. I was really looking forward to more.

Summary of Beyond the World of Pooh: Selections from the Memoirs of Christopher Milne (Winnie-The-Pooh Collection)

Christopher Milne was the world-famous son of A. A. Milne. This collection brings together passages from the four volumes of C. R. Milne's memoirs. Covering his much-publicized childhood, his war experiences, marriage, and proprietorship of a bookshop, this book presents an intriguing portrait of a gifted man. He chose to live simply--a choice that ultimately brought a happiness that could never come from the empty fame of being the real Christopher Robin.
