I loved the pooh stories as a small child, enjoyed them when I was old enough to read them myself, continued to enjoy them as parables in college and now enjoy sharing them with children. Timeless!
I don't own this version, but I do have the unabridged originals in separate mini-book format. As usual, the book is superior to the cartoon(s) in every way.
