Fane Productions | Winnie The Pooh: Once There Was A Bear (FULL EVENT) | FANE @faneproductions | Uploaded January 2024 | Updated October 2024, 6 hours ago.
🍯 Grab your 'poohsticks', it's time for an adventure! Originally published in the 1920s, the stories of Winnie-the-Pooh, as told by A.A. Milne with E. H. Shepard’s iconic decorations, have brought joy to generations. In honour of the 95th anniversary, Gyles Brandreth joins Jane Riordan, author of the official new prequel Winnie-the-Pooh: Once There Was a Bear.
This timeless collection of new stories takes readers back to when Winnie-the-Pooh was first purchased from Harrods Toy department for baby Christopher Robin in August 1921. It imagines the ‘before stories’ of Pooh, Eeyore and Piglet for the first time, and offers readers the chance to meet the younger Christopher Robin previously only glimpsed in Milne’s poetry.
Featuring special guest readings and insights from Harrods archivists on the launch of Milne’s 1926 collection, this is an opportunity for fans of all ages to revisit treasured memories, as Gyles and Jane reminisce about their favourite moments from the original books and explore the challenges and pleasures of writing a prequel to Milne’s much-loved stories.
Winnie The Pooh: Once There Was A Bear was originally broadcast on Wed 20 Oct 2021.
