<p>‘Winnie-the-Pooh has always been a very special (albeit funny old) bear, not least of all because his books are filled with wonderful words of wisdom.', Stylist magazine</p>
<p>‘One of the best children’s books for 2022’, The Telegraph</p>

With grateful thanks to a wonderful Queen. In this beautifully illustrated children's picture book, Winnie-the-Pooh keeps a very special appointment at Buckingham Palace. “It’s the Queen. The Queen is coming.” When Winnie-the-Pooh sets off for Buckingham Palace, London with Christopher Robin, Piglet and Eeyore to deliver a special hum in honour of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, he never dares to imagine that he might actually meet the Queen. Mark Burgess's illustrations, true to the spirit of the original drawings by E.H.Shepard, perfectly capture this incredibly special meeting. 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. 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.
