This is as charming (if not more!) than reading the books themselves. Cross-referenced all to heck, it communicates the charm of the stories very well.

Written in the style of AA Milne's original books, this dictionary - which is more like an encyclopedia - lists all the words and phrases used by Winnie-the-Pooh and his friends, explaining them in context, with plenty of tongue-in-cheek humour.
I read it straight through, but it would also make a great book to dip into, and follow the chains of 'see also....'. Very enjoyable, highly recommended for anyone who recalls AA Milne's classic stories from childhood (and who probably still has the books for further reference).
