Summary

Blackstone Audiobooks presents, from the unabridged collection A.A. Milne's Pooh Classics, the 35 poems and verses from Now We Are Six performed by Peter Dennis. This is the only reading of these delightful verses authorized by A.A. Milne's son, Christopher Robin.

The verses here, along with the verses in When We Were Very Young and the stories in Winnie-the-Pooh and The House at Pooh Corner, have endeared themselves to so many readers that it is painful to try to imagine what the world would be like without them.

The perfect audiobook for that all-important birthday, Now We Are Six is much more than a worthy successor to When We Were Young; it is a modern classic in its own right.

Critic reviews

"Peter Dennis brings to these remarkable readings a quality that goes beyond professionalism into an area we can't even begin to define." ( Los Angeles Times)

Funny for both adults & children alike!

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

My little boy listened to this on a long haul flight rather than watching a movie. He was engaged the whole time but not over stimulated when it came to sleeping a little later. THe stories are gentle & innocent but funny & very sweet. It's a perfect choice for bedtime as there is nothing in there that will frighten.

What other book might you compare Now We Are Six to, and why?

If your children like Paddington Bear, Mary Poppins or the like this is perfect.

What about Peter Dennis’s performance did you like?

It is narrated brilliantly & are the voices of the characters that I had in my head as a child.

Lovely

A classic. The only thing that I'd change is an audiobook issue: I'd like to have timestamps for each story - thankfully it's only an hour long so easily remedied with adding my own bookmarks on next listening

No way to select a poem

This is badly produced. There are no contents. The poems come one after the other with no way to select which you want to hear.
