The new 45-second animation featuring Pooh and friends, pays tribute to Her Majesty The Queen, who also turns 95 this year. Find sources: "Winnie-the-Pooh Meets the Queen"– news · newspapers · books · scholar · JSTOR ( October 2016) ( Learn how and when to remove this template message) is the year when 2 British icons share a very special birthday. Yes thats right, both the Queen and Winnie-the-Pooh are 90 this year and to celebrate Egmont have teamed up with Disney to give fans a very special story where two well loved characters finally get a chance to meet face to face for the first time.Mark Burgess's illustrations, true to the spirit of the original drawings by E.H.Shepard, perfectly capture this incredibly special meeting.

I'm still not convinced that this book did justice to the original Pooh stories. However, more faithful to the original than some of the other later Pooh books I could mention, I really rather enjoyed it. It was believed a young Princess Elizabeth was a fan of the classic A.A. Milne tales and was gifted a Christopher Robin china nursery set with hand-coloured pictures of Christopher Robin, Pooh and Friends.

The animation was created by Disney appointed artist, Kim Raymond, who drew the bespoke illustrations getting inspiration from the classic style of E.H. Shepard. This was so unbelievably sweet. The illustrations were gorgeous and kept to tradition with the Winnie the Pooh Series. I loved that Harrods was included and some other London monuments. But hands down the best part was when Pooh, Piglet, Eeyore and Christopher Robin saw Her Majesty and Prince George. This special picture book also features a timeline of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II’s historic 70 year reign. Weirdly, it's a bit on the nose with pooh mentioning his age. This is probably the book's biggest fault. Disney's Pooh franchise has always been vague on its setting and time period. Christopher's British accent is often traded for an American one (sometimes slipping in the same film), and often seems to cover anything between 1920s Britain to modern America. I HAD to read this! I love the Royal Family and Winnie the Pooh so much, how amazing that the Queen and Pooh Bear both turned 90 last year and they decided for these two British icons to finally meet.Earlier today I read Winnie-the-Pooh Goes To London and enjoyed Pooh's little day trip around the big city. But then I discovered that it was an abridged version of this book, which has been published as Winnie-the-Pooh and the Royal Birthday and Winnie-The-Pooh Meets the Queen, and boy, it's much better than the shortened version. Step into the unforgettable journey of Pooh and his friends as they travel from the Hundred Acre Wood to London, to deliver their thoughtful 90th birthday presents to The Queen. This special picture book also features a timeline of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II's historic 70 year reign. Sulcas, Roslyn (26 May 2016).

To celebrate her 90th birthday, Christopher Robin and friends take the train to London to give the Queen a present. Delightfully told and illustrated. What better way to celebrate both one of the world's best loved bears and Queen Elizabeth II both of whom turned ninety last year than with this sweet little tale in which we get to travel to London with Winnie and friends, spotting some famous landmarks, to say nothing of her HRH Elizabeth and a certain young Prince who just so happens to be "more bouncy than Tigger", as we go.The 1926 A. A. Milne book, Teddy Bear and the Other Songs from When We Were Very Young, was dedicated to Princess Elizabeth upon her birth. Mark Burgess's illustrations, true to the spirit of the original drawings by E. H. Shepard, perfectly capture this incredibly special meeting. This picture book is wonderful gift for the whole family and a commemorative keepsake of the Queen’s remarkable 70 year reign and the Jubilee celebration. This special picture book also features a timeline of Her Majesty’s remarkable 70 year reign. This picture book is a wonderful gift for the whole family and a commemorative keepsake of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II's remarkable life and legacy. A brand new story has been written to celebrate the upcoming official 90th birthday celebrations of Her Majesty the Queen, and also Winnie-the-Pooh’s 90th anniversary. This unabridged version is much livelier, with more wordplay reminiscent of Milne and reference to Pooh's origin in Harrods department store. It also includes an appearance by Prince George of Cambridge that not included in the abridged version. And it has a lovely coda at the end about Pooh's age.
