What to expect
Blackstone Audio presents, from the unabridged collection “A. A. Milne’s Pooh Classics,” the ten stories of The House At Pooh Corner, performed by Peter Dennis.
In A. A. Milne’s wonderful companion volume to Winnie-the-Pooh, you will rediscover Pooh, Christopher Robin, Piglet, Eeyore, and all their friends—and be introduced to the irrepressible and very bouncy Tigger.
As you begin to listen to this beloved book of A. A. Milne’s simple and timeless tales, you’ll enter that enchanted place on the top of the Forest where “a little boy and his Bear will always be playing.”
This is the only reading of these enthralling stories authorized by A. A. Milne’s son, Christopher Robin, who wrote, “Peter Dennis has made himself Pooh’s Ambassador Extraordinary and no bear has ever had a more devoted friend. So if you want to meet the real Pooh, the bear I knew, the bear my father wrote about, listen to Peter.”
Critics Review
-
“This program exemplifies the potential quality audio has for complementing text. Soothing music introduces and links the stories and verses. Subtle sounds of nature immerse the listener in Pooh’s world and provide a backdrop for Peter Dennis’ enchanting performance…Dennis expresses the multitude of emotions in a childlike tone which is key to the success of the program. Winner of the AudioFile Earphones Award.”

“If you want a family break from TV and movies, get comfy, close your eyes, and let this master storyteller stir the imagination…Peter Dennis, with the blessings of the Milne estate, has made Milne’s world something of a life’s work, and his intelligent and whimsical readings, meant for adults and children alike, are captivating.”
