At the Zoo

I was browsing the book, "When we were very Young" and came upon this little verse! I thought I would share it with you all in spite of the fact that you all have probably read it at some time!

More easily read enlarged.

A Lovely reading Maggie.

Is this a snap of the book page or did you have the elephant and compose all this with PS or something?

[Maggiemae]

@ptowncook It is my elephant that I got in Penang and I just typed the verse in using picmonkey, Laura!

A charming little poem by A.A.Milne's --I so loved his books as a child !! How clever of you to come up with this !

I love it - Winnie the Pooh was always a fav - my son loved him too, and I hope someday to have grandchildren to read him to. AA Milne was a wonderful writer. Thanks for stirring thoughts of Pooh.
