I can't believe I haven't read this earlier (for shame!). What sort of childhood is complete without the tales of the Hundred Acre Woods? My heart was in every single page of this book, swelling with love and affection for the characters of my childhood, the nuances of language that the author deftly plays around with, and most unexpectedly, my heart breaking quietly and beautifully at the very end of this book, in the enchanted place where a boy and his bear will always be playing.
Read to my daughter.
Not as fun or as whimsical as Winnie the Pooh. Rabbit is a lil bitch.

"The House at Pooh Corner" by A.A. Milne is the follow-up to the beloved children's classic, "Winnie-the-Pooh." The book features all of your favorite characters from the original: Pooh bear, Piglet, Rabbit, Roo, and it even introduces new friend, Tigger.
Told with the same endearing whimsy, Milne's second children's book in the series is enchanting. I listened to the audiobook performed by Peter Dennis, who uses unique voices for every character and even adds in his own sound effects, which brings the stories to life.
Some of the values taught in this second book include the importance of friendship and caring for others without hope of anything in return. The book includes some splendid songs and poetry, that the "bear with very little brain" thinks up as wanders about the Hundred Acre Wood.
This book is a delight for children and grown-ups alike.

There is a bittersweetness about this book that did not fail to give my heart a twinge, especially during the closing lines of the book. It evokes the feeling of a loved one's comforting hand slipping into yours during the most trying of times. You get a sense that they're saying, "I'm here with you. You're not alone. Always."
I would have enjoyed this book as a child, but I'm very glad I got to discover this in my adulthood. I didn't realize how much I needed it.

So many beautiful parts to this book. The final chapter (in which Christopher Robin moves away) is heartbreaking. No lying.
