Winnie The Pooh by A.A. Milne, a worldwide familiar, classic English children's book, is translated into Latin. Which is so much fun for gymnasium students and University students. When they are just starting to learn a classical language and see the familiar pictures from their childhood, it gives a nice feeling of reassurance. Winnie the Poo, how hard can it be?
Well ... it is certainly not that easy ;)) The original book may be written for toddlers but this one does not read easily away. But the well-known, brilliant illustrations by E.H. Shepard have remained in this book, to our great pleasure. How lovely is it to see the famous 100 Aker Wood map in Latin?
This book is a fun gift for children who move to the gymnasium in the new school year or for adult students of classical languages, law or medicine, with the holiday season approaching.
