Good news for you Winnie the Pooh lovers out there.
The honey-loving bear is coming back!
The publishers in Britain and the U.S. said Friday that they will publish a new Pooh book for this year.
The Return to the Hundred Acre Wood will be the first officially authorized sequel to A.A. Milne’s Pooh stories.
Pooh’s new book will be out this October 5th, cutting it close to the holiday shopping season.
The book will be published in both Britain and the U.S. and will be written by playwright David Benedictus.
The publishers didn’t release much info about the new book’s plot, but Benedictus did say he hoped his book would “both complement and maintain Milne’s idea that whatever happens, a little boy and his bear will always be playing.”
A rep for the books said “We hope the many millions of Pooh enthusiasts and readers around the world will embrace and cherish these new stories as if they had just emerged from the pen of A. A. Milne himself.”
