The second of Milne's Winnie the Pooh books, The House at Pooh Corner was particularly notable for the introduction of the beloved character Tigger. As Pooh and Piglet work on building a house for Eeyore and search for a new home for Owl after a storm destroys his, the neighborhood is disrupted by two major events: the arrival of the energetic Tigger, and the departure of Christopher Robin, who has come of age to leave for school. Optimistic and nostalgic, the book ends with the unforgettable image: "Wherever they go, and whatever happens to them on the way, in that enchanted place at the top of the Forest, a little boy and his Bear will always be playing." Fine in Very Good + dust jacket. (Item #8285)
