Wonderful presentation of this classic.

Dench and Fry read this in a style that keeps the whimsy of the book without crossing over into the twee. The voices are superbly cast - I particularly liked Kanga and Piglet. The slight Aussie accent for Kanga worked and Jane Horrocks' Piglet is how I hear it in my head when I read the book. Eeyore also is good. I particularly liked that this is the full unabridged and unedited text of the original book.

Wonderful stories!

I and the grandchildren all love these stories. Gave 4 for performance because Tigger's voice is so unnerving, and grates on the nerves! I always skip the chapter (3?) in which Tigger is inttoduced. Otherwise, very entertaining for children and adults alike!

Charming and beautifully realized.

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

Absolutely, I don't even think that you need the excuse of having small children. A.A. Milne is whimsical enough on his own, but the cast brings these voices to life in ways I had never even been able to imagine, not a false note among them.

What other book might you compare Winnie the Pooh: The House at Pooh Corner (Dramatised) to and why?

The first in the series, 'Winnie the Pooh', though it's a bit obvious to mention it.

What about the narrators’s performance did you like?

They are varied enough that they are immediately distinguishable and so full of personality you expect them to walk out of your head, complete and large as life.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes, but each chapter is great on its own, as well.

Actually the Best!

I am constantly quoting this book.
The last chapter is a call to arms. I cry every time I hear it.

What a Cast!

It was lovely! Stephen Fry, Judi Dench and cast were wonderful. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

Great Story But Sound Quality Issues

Great story and voices are good. But the story volume in horrible. It’s loud then barely audible then perfect then loud again. It’s all over the place.

Great recording but be careful

Wikipedia has the listed titles to the House at Pooh Corner. Just be aware that Pooh Invents a New Game and Tigger Comes to the Forest are exactly what's in the House at Pooh Corner. Hopefully Audible will come along and list the chapters so people don't do what I did...

Performance and content

Very good a couple gliches but fine otherwise very good content good story for 4 -13 years old

I forgot how wonderful the Pooh stories are!

Would you listen to Winnie the Pooh: The House at Pooh Corner (Dramatised) again? Why?

Yes. It brought me back to how I felt when I read these books as a child, but the story actually has other layers when you read or listen to it as an adult.

What other book might you compare Winnie the Pooh: The House at Pooh Corner (Dramatised) to and why?

This kind of reminded me of the Toy Story movies. The whole "toys have a life of their own" thing.

What about the narrators’s performance did you like?

The narrators/performers were very clear and easy to understand. They spoke in just the right tones, and it was easy to tell the various characters apart. The stories were read as if they were reading aloud to a child, but not talking down to the child.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

Listening to Eeyore made me giggle. I didn't realize how sardonic he was when I read these the first few times as a kid. But the actor did a great job bringing the character to life and still making him likeable.

Any additional comments?

Listening to this book was an amazing experience. It made me very happy, and yet a little wistful.

Forever a classic

Winnie the Pooh is a perfect book no matter how old you are. Especially touching for those who remember before growing up.
