Calista's Reviews> Now We Are Six

The classic poems of A. A. Milne with Christopher Robin and Winnie-the-Pooh. These poems are for probably 6 and below and anyone who loves Pooh.

I read these at lunch and maybe I was in the wrong headspace for this, but I wasn't so impressed by them. I felt they were either too silly or the verse wasn't all that good and then some were good poems, usually with Pooh or Christopher. Maybe, I will need to re-read it later, or to some kids and see their reactions.

The first story is so odd about King John's Christmas. Poor Bad King John never getting any Christmas gifts. So sad. The ending was fun. I enjoyed CHERRY STones. That was fun. THE KNIGHT WHOSE ARMOR DIDN'T SQUEAK was a fun little story. THE CHARCOAL BURNER was a good bit of poetry. US TOO was a great little Pooh and Christopher story.

I mean these were cute, but maybe my inner child is out to lunch or something. I wasn't feeling this. It had moments and then the rest were simply okay. It must be me.
