About this listen
*FOUR STARRED REVIEWS*
Celebrate the 100th anniversary of Winnie-the-Pooh with this lovely audiobook about the creation of the World's Most Famous Bear! How a Bear Became a Book features music and special effects. Listen along and enjoy the fun!
In 1926, the very first Winnie-the-Pooh book was published. One hundred years later, generations of kids have grown up in the Hundred Acre Wood.
How a Bear Became a Book tells the story of how writer, illustrator, and editor came together to craft Pooh's first adventure. But deeper than that, this book introduces our youngest readers to how stories begin and where they can go. As Pooh's voice enters the text, he slowly comes to life in the art.
This audiobook about the making of picture books is also a masterful exploration of ideas, storytelling, collaboration, art, and most importantly, honey.
A Macmillan Audio production from Henry Holt & Company (BYR)
Critic Reviews
"A thoughtful, beautifully crafted title that honors a literary classic on the eve of its centennial and introduces “The Best Bear in All the World” to a new generation." —School Library Journal, Starred Review
"A stunning tribute to a classic that also offers insight into the bookmaking process." —Kirkus, Starred Review
"Bay Pimentel and Pray highlight the importance of teamwork, pulling back the curtain on the creators who produced the Winnie-the-Pooh books." —Publishers Weekly, Starred Review
"Marking one hundred years since the publication of A. A. Milne’s Winnie-the-Pooh (1926), this thoughtful, well-designed informational picture book pays tribute not only to that book’s creation but also to the process of book creation in general." —Horn Book, Starred Review
