Now We Are Six by A.A. Milne

3.0

So to make a short story long: a friend of my mother's, his mother died (may she rest in peace). And those people already had a lot of books so all the books of the mother are brought to them and they want to dispose of them, so he calls my mom, asking if I'm interested in books. Me assuming everything was in Dutch, I was not much up to it, but he told me that there were all sorts of books. So well why not, I came there expecting a few boxes with books, maximum up to 3 or so. There were seven of them and his wife wasn't allowed to keep any. So it was in the early morning that I spend through seven book boxes to find books I might like, I did like and that I did want to read and since everything would otherwise be gone, some books my friends might want.

Thank god I had help from my boyfriend since we didn't have much time, I manage to look through everything and come up with 86 books that I want, a few for my two reading friends and off I could go. One of those books was this one. I am not very familiar with names but as soon as A.A. Milne jumped up I knew it. There has once been a boyfriend of my mother whom collected books (I only liked him because of that of course) and he collected them, Winnie The Pooh stories. I always watched movies when I was a kid. So I was very and am very proud that I have one. I expected a full story written about Winnie but I didn't get that, I got poems which was something else but it was lovely. I didn't get all but I sure did love some of them. I hope to get my hands on a few more, maybe so I can buy them or maybe in the library. Time will tell.
