Product Information

To celebrate her 90th birthday, Christopher Robin and friends take the train to London to give the Queen a present. Delightfully told and illustrated. Earlier today I read Winnie-the-Pooh Goes To London and enjoyed Pooh's little day trip around the big city. But then I discovered that it was an abridged version of this book, which has been published as Winnie-the-Pooh and the Royal Birthday and Winnie-The-Pooh Meets the Queen, and boy, it's much better than the shortened version.

This special picture book also features a timeline of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II’s historic 70 year reign. This was so unbelievably sweet. The illustrations were gorgeous and kept to tradition with the Winnie the Pooh Series. I loved that Harrods was included and some other London monuments. But hands down the best part was when Pooh, Piglet, Eeyore and Christopher Robin saw Her Majesty and Prince George.This picture book is a wonderful gift for the whole family and a commemorative keepsake of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II's remarkable life and legacy. This special picture book also features a timeline of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II's historic 70 year reign.

More recently, in 2016, to mark Pooh and the Queen’s 90th celebrations, Winnie the Pooh and the Royal Birthday was published, which saw Pooh meet the Monarch for the very first time. This October we’re celebrating Winnie-the-Pooh’s 90th anniversary, which marks 90 years since his first arrival in the Hundred Acre Wood. With Her Majesty The Queen and Winnie-the-Pooh both celebrating 90 years, it only seems fitting that these two much-loved British icons should finally meet.The new 45-second animation featuring Pooh and friends, pays tribute to Her Majesty The Queen, who also turns 95 this year. Pooh ranks alongside other beloved characters such as Paddington Bear, and Peter Rabbit as an essential part of our literary heritage. Whether you're 5 or 55, Pooh is the bear for all ages.

This is the version to get. I read a library copy today, but now I hope to add a copy to our personal collection one day.I have drawn Pooh Bear for over 30 years and continue to be inspired by the classic works of E.H. Shepard. Disney wanted to create a touching story befitting of the world’s most loved bear, who for over 95 years, has touched the hearts of millions”.
