This story of a young bear is very enjoyable. His parents couldn’t decide what to name him, so his great-grandfather, thinking he was a she, named him Louise. As the other young bears teased him about his name, Louise spent lots of time by himself, and began making poetry. He becomes a member of Mr. Boomschmidt’s circus, where they change his name to Freginald, and, with the aid of Freddy, uncovers an unscrupulous man who is attempting to put Mr. Boomschmidt out of business.
At first, I was sort of disappointed that this story’s star wasn’t Freddy, but there are so many fun parts that I couldn’t help liking it. The circus animals are back in full force, and Freginald has some humorous adventures.

A tiger named Shere Khan was hunting in the jungle when he scared some people away from their campfire. When they ran they left a baby boy behind. The tiger tried to eat the boy, but the wolves protected the boy because the tiger was hunting in their part of the jungle. The mother wolf named the boy Mowgli and often told him how he would have to kill the tiger when he was older.
I like some books better than this one, and there aren’t many funny parts in it, but it’s still pretty good!

Hold it right there! Before you read this review, I must warn you that it gives away something from the first book, Beyond the Summerland. So if you haven’t read the first book yet, don’t read any farther!!! And I mean that! I know it’s hard, but MOVE ON TO THE NEXT REVIEW! Okay, are you gone? Alright. For those of you who have read the first one, or are disregarding my warnings, go ahead and read.
Benjiah, son of Wylla and Joriaem, is now seventeen, and Wylla still has not told him that his father was a prophet of Allfather. Aljeron and Koshti are away in Shalin Bel, engaged in a seven-year war against Rhulalin, with the aim to bring him to justice. Little do they know what Malek is about to attempt, but the urgency of the situation is brought home when Valzaan discovers that Benjiah is The Chosen One.
There. Any of you who disregarded my instructions now have a pretty good idea of how Beyond the Summerland ends. I like this one better than the first. It’s really good. Oh, those of you who despaired with me over the abrupt ending in the first one, let me warn you: this one’s even worse.

Winnie-the-Pooh and his friends have many adventures in the Hundred Acre Wood. They catch a Heffalump (a honey consuming creature), Pooh goes visiting (it’s nothing like the kid’s movie), rescue Piglet from a flood (nowhere near the video), and many other fun adventures.
First, although kids love Winnie-the-Pooh, everybody can enjoy it. A. A. Milne is funny, in a subtle sort of way. If you’ve seen the movies and videos, I recommend that you read at least the first one to get the true story.
Please note that this is a review of the first book only. However, the link is to the complete collection of both books.
