Disney’s Tasia Filippatos said: “Winnie the Pooh stories hold a unique place in the hearts of so many around the world. Earlier today I read Winnie-the-Pooh Goes To London and enjoyed Pooh's little day trip around the big city. But then I discovered that it was an abridged version of this book, which has been published as Winnie-the-Pooh and the Royal Birthday and Winnie-The-Pooh Meets the Queen, and boy, it's much better than the shortened version. With Winnie the Pooh, Christopher Robin and co leaving the 100 Acre Woods for London it is a great chance to show off the city as well as Pooh's experience of The Real World. There are the same styled fears and thoughts of the group and Riordan even throws in a wonderful joke as Pooh passes the store he was bought from originally. The Queen makes it into the story of course, and even Prince George which was to be expected. What I was not expecting however, was to come to the very end and become emotional and nostalgic and start to tear up as Riordan lyrically and beautifully mentions that while the Queen is 90, so too is Pooh Bear. Weirdly, it's a bit on the nose with pooh mentioning his age. This is probably the book's biggest fault. Disney's Pooh franchise has always been vague on its setting and time period. Christopher's British accent is often traded for an American one (sometimes slipping in the same film), and often seems to cover anything between 1920s Britain to modern America.

Yes thats right, both the Queen and Winnie-the-Pooh are 90 this year and to celebrate Egmont have teamed up with Disney to give fans a very special story where two well loved characters finally get a chance to meet face to face for the first time. But it is, overall, terribly adorable and so very English. Having been to London, I was cheered to see all the familiar landmarks and amused to see them from a bear's point-of-view. And how delightful it is to see the love for the Queen (and even a cameo by Prince George!). Winne the Pooh and his friends embark on a journey to visit the Queen at Winsdor Castle.

Pooh ranks alongside other beloved characters such as Paddington Bear, and Peter Rabbit as an essential part of our literary heritage.This October we’re celebrating Winnie-the-Pooh’s 90th anniversary, which marks 90 years since his first arrival in the Hundred Acre Wood. With Her Majesty The Queen and Winnie-the-Pooh both celebrating 90 years, it only seems fitting that these two much-loved British icons should finally meet. I LOVE Winnie-the-Pooh, as I'm sure most people do. I'm also a Royalist, so finding out about the book was super exciting. It's such a beautiful and fun story that can be enjoyed by absolutely anyone - it's not just a kid's story!

More recently, in 2016, to mark Pooh and the Queen’s 90th celebrations, Winnie the Pooh and the Royal Birthday was published, which saw Pooh meet the Monarch for the very first time. I started reading this wondering how Riordan would mimic Milne's writing, whether she would try. The pictures are so like Shepard that is not an issue, it's always refreshing to see the original Shepard style compared to the over exposed Disney version (as much as I also adore them). This was so unbelievably sweet. The illustrations were gorgeous and kept to tradition with the Winnie the Pooh Series. I loved that Harrods was included and some other London monuments. But hands down the best part was when Pooh, Piglet, Eeyore and Christopher Robin saw Her Majesty and Prince George.What better way to celebrate both one of the world's best loved bears and Queen Elizabeth II both of whom turned ninety last year than with this sweet little tale in which we get to travel to London with Winnie and friends, spotting some famous landmarks, to say nothing of her HRH Elizabeth and a certain young Prince who just so happens to be "more bouncy than Tigger", as we go.
