4.5Charming poetry to escape life for a bit or look back
Reading poetry in book form front-to-back isn't really something I enjoy, but you can pace it rather easily. The poems range from hilarious to silly, and there are even some weirder/nonsensical ones sprinkled in. Only one poem refers to a bear, but that one turns out to be the most hilarious of them all. At the end of the day, the poems are a window into the walks A.A. Milne took with Christopher Robin and offer an insight into themes of growing up, playing, deep thoughts, and general childish fun. Enjoying it at a slower pace and thinking about ones own experiences as a child gives you a great reading journey.
