beatles1964 As for children's books, I do not think you can possibly go wrong with The House at Pooh Corner or Goodnight Moon! I had read the entire Winnie-the-Pooh ouvre to my oldest daughter before she ever arrived, and when she finally did get here, her nickname was Tigger because she loved to bounce.

After more than 30 years I still find The House at Pooh Corner a very comforting read. 32) The House at Pooh Corner by A.A. Milne--And now I've read all of the Pooh stories. It's great that Milne was so consistent in keeping the same gentleness and humor throughout his writing. I read this volume to myself at bedtime, one or two stories a night, and it was a very nice way to end ... More DP from a book review:
"It is that word 'hummy,' my darlings, that marks the first place in The House at Pooh Corner at which Tonstant Weader fwowed up." ... & I was more than happy to give it. It felt like a while that my mind'd be given a good stretch.

I came across this while doing my re-organisation and thought it would be a good 'bedtime book'. This was another one I ... The ones I've had the longest is easy - Winnie the pooh, The house at pooh corner & Moominland midwinter have been with me since I was 2-3 years old, which adds up to some 40 years in my library by now.

read aloud to my 7yo
This sequel is just as endearing and beautiful as the first story of Winnie-the-Pooh. This is the book in which we meet Tigger and all the friends we are familiar with are now together. The 7yo enjoyed this tremendously ... Winnie the Pooh and The House at Pooh corner though I did read Now we are six. ... one is made of radio dramatisations, where they get different actors to do the voices for different characters. I have The House at Pooh Corner from Word for Word and Evil under the Sun from Agatha Christie, both are incredible!

I read Winnie the Pooh and House at Pooh Corner several times from the library when I was a kid. When I found out I was pregnant with my first child I bought a boxed set right away.
My favorite ... ... I download them straight from Audible. Then all you have to do is sync your ipod and you're ready to listen.
