Roger and Stephen Allen have had great success themselves in using A. A. Milne's Winnie-the-Pooh characters to illustrate their common-sense approach to business. Their Winnie-the-Pooh on Management and Winnie-the-Pooh on Problem Solving have together sold more than 200,000 copies. Now, in Winnie-the-Pooh on Success, the Allens return to the Hundred Acre Wood to explore just exactly what success is and how it can be achieved. For some, like Pooh himself, it is a simple matter of attaining a few extra jars of honey. Whatever the definition, the point is that, whether bear or owl, kangaroo or human, we must each decide what success means for us and actively pursue it. With its appealing trim size and genuine Ernest Shepherd illustrations, Winnie-the-Pooh on Success will reach an even larger audience than its predecessors. Its lessons are applicable to people in all walks of life, from corporate managers and entrepreneurs, to college students, homemakers, and retirees, all of whom know and love Winnie-the-Pooh.

What is success? The conventional view is that having money and position is the key. Not according to Winnie-the-Pooh. Bob Davis and Shirley Venard read this childlike tale by the Allens about the many ways Pooh and his friends regard success. All of them involve certain actions, such as selecting a dream, creating a plan, enhancing your ability, and spending time wisely. The ideas in the book are good but are not new or elaborated upon. And they are very elementary. Too much time is spent on telling a Winnie-the-Pooh story and not on substance. Many adults will not want a tape that tries to be cute to guide their personal success. Not a necessary purchase.?Mark Guyer, Stark Cty. Dist. Lib., Canton, Ohio
