Format:Audio CD
An absolutely spellbinding journey through Hundred Acre wood; the all star cast really bring the stories to life. My three year old son is mesmerised every time we listen to it. A great way to spend time with your kids in this age of videos and computers.

Format:Audio CD
I bought this for my nephew as we already have a copy and listen to it constantly on long car journeys. It is a brilliant Winne the Pooh adaptation. All the characters are brought to life just as you imagine them and the actors have been perfectly chosen (Stephen Fry as Winnie the Pooh, Geoffrey Palmer as Eeyore and so on). My children can quote long speeches from it. Entertaining for all ages!

Format:Audio CD
A perfect labour of love. I keep the CDs in my car and listen to them time and again. The lightness, the humour, the tenderness of the original stories are all captured perfectly. The characterisations are just so right - Piglet's little squeaks, Ow's owlish voice, Eyore's complaints, Rabbit's busybody organising and of course Pooh's poohishness.
It can be so difficult to listen to an audio book or (even worse) watch a film of a book that you know and love. They change too much and turn it into something different (completely different if you watch the Disney films). Or they just don't get it.
But David Benedictus has worked a wonder with these CDs. Each voice, the piano accompaniment to Pooh's hums, the timing, the swapping around of narrator, the whole completely captures the essence of the what makes these stories so timeless and so perfect.
And the second volume - The House at Pooh Corner - is just as goodThe House at Pooh Corner
Absolutely recommended

A childhood classic
Beautiful, charming and skilfully made adaptations that I had on cassette as a child. The voices of the well-known actors are put to suberb use, and the books are brought to life... Read more
