When I was in elementary school, I purchased a book for 6 cents, called "Now We Are Six" by A.A. Milne. It's about Christopher Robin and of course Winnie the Pooh. I fell in love with all of the drawings and illustrations.
I recently came across this book again that I've kept in our storage unit, and did a little research on it. Come to find out there are actually 4 books in this set.
So thus my antique adventures of searching for the other three begins!
And of course I couldn't go home without a Disney story book filled with tons of the classic Disney stories. I hope I get a chance to read these to my niece soon! :) If not, the husband will have to do. ha ha
I was taking a college course on children's literature and ordered Winnie the Pooh on Amazon. I just picked one that said it was in good condition with no writing in it, and when I got it it was a hard back copy printed in 1961. It's in great condition and I'm so happy I got it. We ended up not ever reading the book in class, but I have a pretty nice copy of one of my favorite stories, so I think I got along pretty well. I love old books!
