When We Were Very Young and Now We Are Six Audiobook

" This book and Now We are Six are my very favorite books of poems from my childhood, and I think my kids would agree for their childhoods as well. I just had to buy myself new copies :) "

" This book reminds me of my youth "

" Love all of these poems! "

" Very cute collection of poems. I definitely like the Pooh stories much better, but these poems were fun and short. I could see them being excellent to read to a small child before bed or to help teach a child to read. "

" This is one of the best memories of books from my childhood. "

" Not as familiar as the original Pooh, but still a go-to book for me. "

" There is a particular poem in this volume that I adore. It's called "halfway down." look it up. "

" like this book a LOT! right now i'm reading it for the third time! "

" His poems are very sweet a clever also "

" One for every generation. A necessity for a child to grow up with. "

" A sweet little book, full of cute poems and nice illustrations :) "

" Love reading this to the kids at lunch time. "

" I love how Winnie the Pooh is almost more for adults than kids. And when you can understand the "adult stuff" at a younger age, you feel so grown up. I love Bad Sir Brian Botany. "

" First book of poems I've ever read. I actually enjoyed it. I love poems and these were really fun to read. I hope 'Now We Are Six' is just as good. "

" Not only did I love many poems in this book, but the illustrations are great. However, I found myself relying on the pictures a lot to understand the poem, This is not my favorite poem book, but I do think it would be great for young children. "

" Hannah likes the pictures mostly, she liked the Silverstein poems better.... "

" We are big AA Milne fans here "

" Once I was subbing in a class and read some of these poems to the first graders. When I subbed in that class again a little girl came up and asked if I would read "that good book" again. "

" Cute, easy to read poems. "

" Favorite when I was 6. "

" they're changing the guard at buckingham palace--crazy how this stuff never ever leaves your head- the king asked the queen and the queen asked the dairymaid- love love love "

" I didn't know it was a book of poems so I was pleasantly surprised at this discovery! All round it was ok. My absolute favourite poems were "The Christening", "Puppy and I", "The Three Foxes", "Before Tea" and "Vespers". They were gems hidden within making When We Were Very Young worthwhile. "

" These stories are a great way to enter the imaginary world of a child's mind. The poems are light and happy and seem to be read in a sort of sing-song way. Children will love to read these poems out loud. The charming Whinnie the Pooh characters are pictured in the book as well. "

" Another classic. I will pass this along to my children, as I assume my mother did for me. I have a beautiful brown leather with gold inlay version from 1961. "

" My mother read these to us as children and I marveled at the power of poetry. These poems continue to delight me. I hope someday to read them to beloved grandchildren. "

" Such an imagination. Such great poems to share, especially the one of the tubby bear. I love the devotion and love he expresses with each little poem, shows an absolute respect for his son's opinions, thoughts, and words. Really captures childhood, and how mundanely magical it be. "

" Also know this one by heart. My poor future kids are going to have A. A. Milne rammed down their throats. "Can I please have some dinner?" "REPEAT 'JAMES JAMES MORRISON MORRISON'!!!" "

" I collected all four books from a 1950s printing, and I'm working through them. Just finished Whinnie the Pooh, the first volume, which was very cute. "

" Lugu dan transparan, khas pemikiran anak-anak yang jernih. "

" Winnie the Pooh doesn't know what to do.. when honey jar stuck on his nose. :).. salah satu dari sekian kejenakaan Pooh and friends di pooh corner. Secara eksplisit ini adalah cerita anak2 yang ringan dan lucu tetapi sebenarnya setiap karakter bisa dijadikan cermin bagi kita ;) "

" I love the large size and large font of these books. "

" I remember being read these stories and reading them myself at a very young age. I can't help it, I'm a sucker for the hundred acre woods! "

" We read the first two in the series, but even though Gabriel was entertained by the books, he wasn't enthralled by them. He can take or leave Edward Bear aka Winnie-ther-Pooh. He does seem to like Tigger though--must be because they are both so bouncy! "

" Christopher Robin Milne is said to have complained bitterly that his childhood was co-opted by his father, and critics decry the books for being too "precious." But for me, at 10 or 11, the pre-Disney Pooh stories and two small volumes of poetry were beyond reproach. "

" will be reading this to my generations that follow. "
