Winnie-the-Pooh and his friends have a vocabulary that is, to say the least, unique. For the first time, the words and phrases that make communication in the Hundred Acre Wood so delightful are collected in The Pooh Dictionary. Author A. R. Melrose has meticulously documented the lexicon of Pooh, with its endearingly misused terms, made-up words, and childlike phrases - qualities that have made A. A. Milne's stories such classics of children's literature. Organized like the true reference work that it is, the book's entries include the part of speech and one or more definitions, as well as an excerpt from the appropriate tale. Equally appealing to the Pooh scholar or casual reader, this chatty little volume explores the subtleties - and the humor - of the language of Winnie-the-Pooh. From accident to biscuit cough to tiddely pom and woozles, this compilation pays homage to Milne's brilliant work and is a linguistic achievement in itself.
