Samenvatting

Christopher Robin's story in his own words.

The little boy did grow up and it is the grown-up little boy who is writing now . . . The stories and verses of A. A. Milne are familiar to millions of fans - both young and old - and his characters even more so. Winnie-the-Pooh, Piglet, Tigger and Eeyore have accompanied many a child on their adventures, and their constant companion, Christopher Robin, lives in an enchanted world. But what was it like to be the small boy with the long hair, smock and Wellington boots? At the age of fifty-four, Christopher Milne wrote this classic account of his early childhood and 'the enchanted places' in Sussex in which he played. He tells his story with humour and humility, drawing a memorable portrait of his father and reconstructing a happy childhood spent in London and Cotchford Farm, the Milne family home, near the real locations that inspired the Hundred Acre Wood, Galleon's Lap and Poohsticks Bridge. At once both extraordinary and modest, The Enchanted Places provides a glimpse behind the curtain of a magical story that has touched the lives of readers the world over. 'An autobiography of extraordinary tact as well as candour' The Times 'Mr Milne has set out to recreate a world . . . he has been totally successful' Times Literary Supplement

Now the subject of major Disney film starring Ewan McGregor, this is Christopher Robin in his own words.

Millions of readers throughout the world have grown up with the stories and verses of A. A. Milne; have envied Christopher Robin in his enchanted world; laughed at Pooh - a bear of very little brain - and worried about Piglet and his problems. But what was it like to be the small boy with the long hair, smock and wellington boots?

At the age of fifty-four Christopher Milne recalled his early childhood, remembering 'the enchanted places' where he used to play in Sussex. The Hundred Acre Wood, Galleon's Lap and Poohsticks Bridge existed not only in the stories and poems but were part of the real world surrounding the Milne home at Cotchford Farm.

With deftness and artistry Milne draws a memorable portrait of his father, and an evocative reconstruction of a happy childhood in London and Sussex. The Enchanted Places is a story told with humour and modesty.
