In the animated tale, Winnie the Pooh delivers a special gift to Queen Elizabeth II, accompanied by his trusted friends, Christopher Robin, Piglet, Tigger and Eeyore - spoiler: the gift contains honey.
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.

Shepard. The classic Winnie the Pooh stories are dear to many, so to celebrate 95 years of the world’s most famous bear, Disney has released a special animation titled Winnie the Pooh and the Royal Adventure. To celebrate her 90th birthday, Christopher Robin and friends take the train to London to give the Queen a present. Delightfully told and illustrated.
Winnie the Pooh Meets the Queen: An illustrated classic
It was believed a young Princess Elizabeth was a fan of the classic A.A. Milne tales and was gifted a Christopher Robin china nursery set with hand-coloured pictures of Christopher Robin, Pooh and Friends. Mark Burgess's illustrations, true to the spirit of the original drawings by E.H.Shepard, perfectly capture this incredibly special meeting.I started reading this wondering how Riordan would mimic Milne's writing, whether she would try. The pictures are so like Shepard that is not an issue, it's always refreshing to see the original Shepard style compared to the over exposed Disney version (as much as I also adore them).

The illustrated and audio adventure is called Winnie-the-Pooh and the Royal Birthday, and has been narrated by Oscar winning actor Jim Broadbent. I LOVE Winnie-the-Pooh, as I'm sure most people do. I'm also a Royalist, so finding out about the book was super exciting. It's such a beautiful and fun story that can be enjoyed by absolutely anyone - it's not just a kid's story! Inspired by A.A. Milne and E.H. Shepard. I'm still not convinced that this book did justice to the original Pooh stories. However, more faithful to the original than some of the other later Pooh books I could mention, I really rather enjoyed it. This special picture book also features a timeline of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II's historic 70 year reign. Mashable is a registered trademark of Ziff Davis and may not be used by third parties without express written permission.This unabridged version is much livelier, with more wordplay reminiscent of Milne and reference to Pooh's origin in Harrods department store. It also includes an appearance by Prince George of Cambridge that not included in the abridged version. And it has a lovely coda at the end about Pooh's age. The themes of friendship and simple pleasures are more relevant than ever 95 years on and we’re delighted to share this new tale to help fans celebrate his milestone birthday”. Mark Burgess’s illustrations, true to the spirit of the original drawings by E.H.Shepard, perfectly capture this incredibly special meeting.
