360. Celebrate 100 years of Winnie the Pooh with new stories in 100 Acre Wood from Jane Riordan

Back in 1926, the first Winnie the Pooh book was published – and became one of the most loved children's stories of all time. One hundred years later, Plodcast host Fergus Collins joins Jane Riordan in the land of Pooh – Ashdown Forest in Sussex – to celebrate the work of AA Milne and EH Shepherd and hear about Jane's wonderful new sequels to the original stories.
Included in this Plodcast: whitethroats, skylarks and an intense game of Poohsticks!
Jane Riordan's Winnie the Pooh sequel is A Little Boy and His Bear published by Farshore.
