 A good try.... but May 16, 2010

Yes, Alan Bennett does read the stories nicely. And he does have a nice Poohish voice. But it doesn't quite capture the imagination. And now that I've got the David Benedictus version Winnie the Pooh: Dramatisation (with Stephen Fry as Pooh and Jane Horrocks giving an amazing Piglet) the Alan Bennett version has gone to the charity shop. There is just no comparison
 Wonderful May 14, 2010
4yo, 7yo and forty something parents loved this. The voices, the music, the stories are all fantsastic. Just the thing for abb long car journey or even a wet afternoon at home!
Only one complaint -- why do the BBC do such poor track listings and put them where you can't see them wthout taking the paper out of the CD case?
A little something... to make you smile :) April 4, 2010

I loved the Winnie-the-Pooh stories as a child. They're just so charming!
As an adult, they are just as enchanting!
I wanted something different to listen to on my iPod and this is the best thing! I listen to it on my journey to and from work and it makes me smile so much!
For anyone who loves Pooh Bear or anyone who loves a funny story, this is for you and read by Alan Bennett (once you get over his Australian accent for Kanga and Roo!) what could be better?!
And at this price?!
Recommended for anyone between the ages of 0-120!

I bought this CD for my son (4 yrs), to complement a different version of 'Winnie the Pooh', of which we only had a tape, making it unsuitable for listening in the car.
My son hated the newly-bought version by Alan Bennett and kept asking to listen to the 'old' version. I must say, I see his point:
Bennett, while admittedly possessing a fine reading voice, races through the text in a way that made it hard to keep up, let alone follow. A real let-down after the wonderful rendering we were used to from our previous version.
Call me old-fashioned, but I think that reading to children should be done at a reasonably leisurely pace, making it easy for them to identify words and their pronounciation (which they are learning to imitate). My son's own (and independent!) opinion backs me up.
We have thus returned to our 'old' version, while the other one rots away unheard and unloved on the shelf.
I can therefore not recommend this particular version, at least not for small children. Time will tell if my son will be more accepting of Bennett's reading at a future date.
For those interested: We love Bernard Cribbins' reading of 'All the Pooh Stories: Complete & Unabridged' by Cover to Cover Cassettes Ltd. The set includes both books (Winnie the Pooh and The House at Pooh Corner'). Unfortunately, still only available on tape.
Wonderful product June 21, 2009

Bought this for my little granddaughter in New Zealand. Her Mum is currently enjoying it while we wait for Ruth to be old enough to appreciate it.
