![]() ![]() This is a heartbreaking book in a way, Christopher Robin realises he is growing up and it makes some wonderfully moving monents that make you (me specifically), very teary and emotional. The game of Pooh Sticks is also created in one of these stories, and it includes a slightly older Christopher Robin, growing up and heading off to school. I love this book as much as the first one, the stories are beautiful and there are some wonderful important moments about friendship and kindness, and I think Eeyore is so delightful and the relationship between Pooh and Piglet really shines. Possibly because Tigger took off with such popularity and Kanga and Roo were less notable that I thought they were later introductions. ![]() I used to think it was Kanga and Roo who were introduced in the second book but it was actually Tigger. It’s hard to imagine we may have had Winnieithe-Pooh without Tigger, perhaps it would have been another toy instead if Christopher Robin’s mother had chosen differently. The House at Pooh Corner is important because it’s the book where Tigger is introduced. This second volume of stories contains ten chapters, each a story with an adventure of sorts that Christopher Robin and his toys go on. Published in 1928 this is the sequel to Winnie-the-Pooh. ![]()
