the A. A. Milne book

The House at Pooh Corner is a 1928 children's book by A. A. Milne and illustrated by E. H. Shepard. This book is the second novel, and final one by Milne, to feature Winnie the Pooh and his world. The book is also notable for introducing the character Tigger. The book's exact date of publication is unknown beyond the year 1928, although several sources indicate the date of October 11.

In between the release of the 1926 Winnie the Pooh and this novel, Milne and Shepard released Now We Are Six. The release comprised a collection of poems, including some that featured the Pooh characters. While writing this novel, Milne decided that he wanted to end the series as Christopher Robin was getting older. The House at Pooh Corner entered the public domain in the United States in 2024. British copyright of the text expires on 1 January 2027 (70 calendar years after Milne's death) while British copyright of the illustrations expires on 1 January 2047 (70 calendar years after Shepard's death).

The Calgary Herald gave the book a positive review, noting its continued success at capturing the same energy as the first as well as its opportunity as a Christmas gift. The Rhode Island Evening Tribune stated that the stories were "highly imaginative" ones and they "sincerely recommended" the novel. The St. Joseph Gazette also gave a positive review, claiming that "Mr. Milne and E. H. Shepard have done it again!". However, the publication did give a negative remark by stating that the book's place as the final Pooh story was "unsatisfactory". Others echoed this sentiment including The Sydney Mail who felt that Milne and Shepard should continue writing Pooh stories.

In 1968 Jefferson Airplane referenced the book in their song The House at Pooneil Corners, a surrealistic depiction of global nuclear war co written by Paul Kantner and Marty Balin, ending with the line "Which is why a Pooh is poohing in the sun." In 1970, singer songwriter Kenny Loggins penned a song using the book's name for the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band on their album Uncle Charlie & His Dog Teddy. In 1971, Loggins would record the song with Jim Messina as part of Loggins and Messina for their 1971 album, Sittin' In. Loggins wrote the song when he was seventeen when reflecting upon his high school graduation. In 1994, Loggins re released the song as "Return to Pooh Corner" on the album of the same name. This version featured a new verse reflecting upon Loggins' own experiences as a dad. The song features backing vocals from Amy Grant. In 1988, an audio version of the book, published by BBC Enterprises, was narrated by Alan Bennett. In 1997 Hodder Children's Audio released a dramatisation of the book with Stephen Fry as Pooh, Sandi Toksvig as Tigger, Jane Horrocks as Piglet, Geoffrey Palmer as Eeyore, Judi Dench as Kanga, Finty Williams as Roo, Robert Daws as Rabbit, Michael Williams as Owl, Steven Webb as Christopher Robin, and narrated by Judi Dench and Michael Williams. The music was composed and played by John Gould, and directed by David Benedictus.

In 1968, for the Disney featurette Winnie the Pooh and the Blustery Day, chapters 2, 8, and 9 were adapted. For 1974's Winnie the Pooh and Tigger Too!, chapters 4 and 7 were adapted. The book's final chapter served as the basis for the epilogue to The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh and later 1997's direct to video movie Pooh's Grand Adventure: The Search for Christopher Robin. Winnie the Pooh and a Day for Eeyore would later adapt chapter 6 from both this novel and the 1926 original. Segments of Piglet's Big Movie would use chapters 1 and 3 as source material. Chapter 5 was adapted into the 2011 animated Winnie the Pooh. The 2018 live action film Christopher Robin acts as an unofficial sequel to the book, with the film focusing on a grown up Christopher Robin meeting Pooh for the first time since going to boarding school, while the film's first scenes adapt the last chapter of the book. Producer Brigham Taylor was inspired by the book's last chapter for the film's story. Chapter 8 was partially adapted into an episode of 1988's The New Adventures of Winnie the Pooh (entitled "The Masked Offender") where Owl's house falls down.

On September 11, 2023, Jagged Edge Productions announced that Tigger will be in Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey 2. The movie was released in 2024, when Tigger is from now on in the public domain in the US.
