World Book Day

For World Book Day I take a trip to Hundred Acre Wood to visit Winnie the Pooh and there is a map to guide me in handy postcard form, this is where Christopher Robin and his friends lived and had many adventures. The map is centered on Owls House but not all the places in the  'Winnie the Pooh'  book are on the map as they come and go out of the wood. AA Milne's 100 Acre Wood is based on a  much bigger beach wood called 500 Acre Wood in the Ashdown Forest in southern England.

“When you wake up in the morning, Pooh,” said Piglet at last, “what’s the first thing you say to yourself?” “What’s for breakfast,” said Pooh. “What do you say, Piglet?” “I say, I wonder what’s going to happen exciting today?” said Piglet. Pooh nodded thoughtfully. “It’s the same thing,” he said.” - A.A. Milne, Winnie the Pooh
