NOW WE ARE SIX

As the author confides, Winnie-the-Pooh has "sat down on some of the pages" of this treasure trove of nursery favourites. Several of the poems feature the beloved teddy bear, helping Christopher Robin with his schoolwork (if helping is the word) or simply philosophising about a bear''s world. Many of the other verses are famous as nursery classics in their own right. Now We are Six is an unforgettable evocation of childhood, through the eyes of the six-year-old Christopher Robin.
