In A. A. Milne's comic novel, Mr Pim Passes By, chaos prevails when the absent minded Mr Pim calls in to see George Marden, owner of Marden House. George is a fine upstanding citizen and a stickler for doing the right thing. He has a devoted wife, Olivia, and is ward to his somewhat flighty niece, Dinah. Quite innocently, Mr Pim upsets the equilibrium of the Marden household when he casually announces that he's recently seen an ex-convict from Australia, named Telworthy. This character sounds awfully like Olivia's first and supposedly deceased husband and if he's really still alive, then Olivia is a bigamist

"We will now bathe," said a voice at the back of my neck. I gave a grunt and went on with my dream. It was a jolly dream, and nobody got up early in it. "We will now bathe," repeated Archie. "Go away," I said distinctly. Archie sat down on my knees and put his damp towel on my face. "When my wife and I took this commodious residence for six weeks," he said, "and engaged the sea at great expense to come up to its doors twice a day, it was on the distinct understanding that our guests should plunge into it punctually at seven o'clock every morning." "Don't be silly, it's about three now. And I wish you'd get off my knees." "It's a quarter-past seven." "Then there you are, we've missed it. Well, we must see what we can do for you to-morrow. Good-night." Archie pulled all the clothes off me and walked with them to the window. "Jove, what a day " he said. "And can't you smell the sea?" "I can. Let that suffice. I say, what's happened to my blanket? I must have swallowed it in my sleep." "Where's his sponge?" I heard him murmuring to himself as he came away from the window.

"This is an odd book" or so states the author in 1917 for his first introduction. A fairytale with seven league boots, a princess, an enchantment, and the Countess Belvane. As Milne wrote in a later introduction: "But, as you see, I am still finding it difficult to explain just what sort of book it is. Perhaps no explanation is necessary. Read in it what you like; read it to whomever you like; be of what age you like; it can only fall into one of the two classes. Either you will enjoy it, or you won't. It is that sort of book."

Excerpt: The train stops. There is bustle, noise, confusion. Thomas in some magical way has disappeared. A porter appears at the open window and speaks voluble French to Simpson. Simpson looks round wildly for Thomas. "Thomas " he cries. "Un moment," he says to the porter. "Thomas Mon ami, it n'est pas--I say, Thomas, old chap, where are you? Attendez un moment. Mon ami--er--reviendra--" He is very hot. He is wearing, in addition to what one doesn't mention, an ordinary waistcoat, a woolly waistcoat for steamer use, a tweed coat, an aquascutum, an ulster, a camera and a bag of golfclubs. The porter, with many gesticulations, is still hurling French at him. We are delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive Classic Library collection.

Although best known for his Winnie the Pooh stories, A. A. Milne spent years as an editor at the English humor magazine Punch. These sprightly essays were chosen from the hundreds he wrote during that period. As usual, they are funny, wry, and poke fun at almost all of our human foibles. There are 6 short one act plays that he wrote to demonstrate the 6 allowable plots for amateur playwrights and they are absolutely hilarious. The other topics run the gamut from dogs to dates.

Let's celebrate 100 years since the birth of Christopher Robin! Christopher Robin lives behind a green door in the Hundred Acre Wood. He likes catching Woozles, leading expeditions and throwing parties with Piglet, Rabbit, Eeyore and, of course, his very best friend, Winnie-the-Pooh. This charming collection of stories and poems features the wonderful adventures that Christopher Robin has with Winnie-the-Pooh and his friends in the Hundred Acre Wood. The stories are selected from A. A. Milne's Winnie-the-Pooh, The House at Pooh Corner, When We Were Very Young & Now We Are Six. These extraordinary tales of a Boy and his Bear, are accompanied by E. H. Shepard's beautiful, timeless illustrations. Christopher Robin became a movie star in his own right in 2018 with the release of Christopher Robin, a live-action film that follows a grown-up Christopher (Ewan McGregor) as he reunites with his childhood playmates Winnie-the-Pooh, Piglet, Tigger, Eeyore, Rabbit and many more – returning to The Hundred Acre Wood for the first time since he was a boy. This collection of favourite stories and poems is the perfect companion for fans of the film and of Christopher Robin and friends, teaching lessons of friendship and reflecting the power of a child's imagination.
