Description

“A.A. Milne’s stories and poems have enchanted the young, and not so young, for nearly a century. In this delightful audiobook narrator Alison Larkin performs two of his most beloved children’s classics. A tone of lighthearted charm and an adventurous spirit add sparkle to Larkin’s perfectly paced narration of Winnie-the-Pooh. From her endearingly melancholy Eeyore to a Pooh bear who is always thoughtful, or singing, or both — Larkin captures each character’s unique personality in her own engaging style. Leaving behind the Hundred Acre Wood, Larkin presents the poetry of When We Were Very Young in an animated, often childlike tone of voice well suited to the youngest listeners. Whether sparking imaginations or memories, the entire production is thoroughly enjoyable.” —AudioFile

Award-winning narrator and comedienne Alison Larkin brings A A Milne’s Winnie-the-Pooh and When We Were Very Young to a new American audience.

“As a child growing up in the part of England where A A Milne lived, I knew Winnie-the-Pooh, Christopher Robin, Eeyore, Rabbit, Piglet, Owl, Kanga and little Roo,” says Alison Larkin. “They were friends of mine. Narrating this audiobook allowed me to return to the Hundred Acre Wood, re-live our childhood adventures and bring these wonderful stories back to America with me. What a magical journey this has been.”

The beloved stories about a bear of very little brain and his friends are as enchanting today as when they were first written. Winnie-the-Pooh is followed by A A Milne’s When We Were Very Young.
