What a darling collection of poems! I don’t think I enjoyed them quite as much as When We Were Very Young, but these are well worth reading, anyway. These poems are full of fun and whimsy, of imagination and story, and the mementos of a childhood lived well. Some of my particular favorites are “The Old Sailor” (oh, I could relate to him!) and “Waiting at the Window” (because I remember doing the same thing as a child). I loved being able to read this book to my siblings, and they loved them, too. Milne’s writings will always have a dear place in my heart. If you haven’t read this book yet, but love poetry…well, you ought to. ( )
