Published on 11 October 1928, it was received by critics with a delight tinged with sadness: \"the Times Literary Supplement congratulated Milne on avoiding 'the temptation to repeat his successful formula mechanically', though it was 'sad to see the stories end\" (Thwaite 1990, p. 336).\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"MFR Rare Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57012897251703,"sku":null,"price":2750.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0456\/6872\/8995\/files\/SAM_0514_bd5b1b73-dbc7-425e-be5b-72d017782d10.jpg?v=1776284966"},{"product_id":"winnie-the-pooh-by-a-a-milne-1926-first-edition-18","title":"WINNIE-THE-POOH BY A.A.
