Review of The Complete Short Stories of A.A.Milne

 

Ad-PR

Today is my stop on the Random Things blog tour for The Complete Short Stories of AA Milne.


I must admit that I know AA Milne for Winnie the Pooh and this is the first time that I have read any of his other work.


This book is the full collection of AA Milne’s short stories and comprises a total of forty two stories, which were written between 1914 and 1953. It also includes four previously unpublished short stories.


I thought this was a wonderful book and enjoyed dipping in and out and discovering new stories.


I would definitely recommend this book and not just if you are a fan of Winnie the Pooh like me. It has also opened up a whole new world of beautiful writing to enjoy.


Thank you to Random Things Tours and Farrago Books for sending me a copy to review. Check out the banner below to follow the other stops on the tour.
