Ernest H. Shepard

Using a balloon to float in the air, Winnie-the-Pooh pretends he is a cloud so that he can reach the bees' honey.

This carefully abridged edition follows the exciting adventures of water-loving Rat, sensitive Mole, fun-loving Toad and wise Badger as they mess about in boats, get lost in the Wild Wood and battle to take back Toad Hall. Favourite characters and scenes have been reimagined with plate illustrations, presented in a sumptuous hardback design.

Poor Eeyore is very sad, because it is his birthday and no one has taken any notice of it. Pooh and Piglet try their best to see that a proper celebration is made. They nearly succeeded, if only Pooh hadn't gotten hungry on the way, and Piglet hadn't fallen with the balloon ...

When Pooh visits his friend Rabbit, he gets stucks in Rabbit's hole.

Kanga and Baby Roo are the newest inhabitants of the Hundred Acre Wood, and Rabbit isn't sure he likes it. His plan to capture Baby Roo should set things right, if Piglet can bravely play his part, but it is hard to be brave when you are a very small animal ...

Winnie-the-Pooh and Piglet go hunting and nearly catch a woozle.

Recounts how Eeyore came to be floating in the river, and how Pooh, Piglet, Rabbit and Roo get him out.
