A. A. Milne 
Poems from When We Were Very Young 

A contemporary master of the nursery tale brings her unique imagination to a beloved classic.

First published in 1924—two years before
Winnie-the-Pooh—A. A. Milne’s
When We Were Very Young is among the most familiar and cherished works in children’s literature. A whimsical celebration of childhood, Milne wrote the collection for his three-year-old son, and the poems have been read and sung to children for decades since. Now, Rosemary Wells brings her signature cast of animal and child characters to a dozen of Milne’s best-loved poems, including “Disobedience, ” “The King’s Breakfast, ” and “Buckingham Palace” (which stars the one and only Christopher Robin). This musical and memorable edition is by turns traditional and modern, with both delightful charm and wry sensibility.
