Winnie-the-Pooh knows that five minutes to eleven is when a Smackerel of Something should be served. And he knows the difference between a Proper Tea (which is what you'll get at Owl's house) and a Very Nearly Tea (which is one you forget about afterward). For those less versed in the Right Way of Doing Things comes this whimsical little etiquette book. On topics ranging from Conversation to Eating to Visiting, readers will be treated to - and instructed in - the finer points of life in the Hundred Acre Wood. Did you know that it isn't polite to ask for a bit of bread and honey, but it is perfectly acceptable to look wistfully in the direction of the cupboard? With wry humor and a point of view that could only come from a certain Enchanted Place, this irresistible little book is a must-read for fans of Our Bear. After all, it's the Proper Thing to Do!

Feng Shui is the 4,000-year-old Chinese art of living in harmony with one's environment. Now Pooh and company put these traditions to use to bring even more balance to life in the forest.

A sequel of sorts to the classic (and bestselling) sendup of literary criticism, The Pooh Perplex Thirty-seven years ago, a slim parody of academic literary criticism called The Pooh Perplex became a surprise bestseller. Now Frederick Crews has written a hilarious new satire in the same vein. Purporting to be the proceedings of a forum on Pooh convened at the Modern Language Association's annual convention, Postmodern Pooh brilliantly parodies the academic fads and figures that hold sway at the millennium. Deconstruction, poststructuralist Marxism, new historicism, radical feminism, cultural studies, recovered-memory theory, and postcolonialism, among other methods, take their shots at the poor teddy bear and Crews takes his shots at them. The fun lies in seeing just how much adulteration Pooh can stand.

The pessimistic donkey from the Winnie-the-Pooh books dispenses advice on a variety of topics, including friendship, housing, missing tails, bouncing animals, dieting, and etiquette.

Finally in paperback-a quick, easy, and fun primer on management fundamentals. The failure to grasp the basics of management often trips up even the most successful companies. With that in mind, management consultant Roger E. Allen uses A. A. Milne's beloved stories and characters to illustrate essential business principles, such as the establishment of clear objectives and strong leadership, the need for accurate information, and other neglected aspects of prudent management. Wonderfully readable and informative and sure to have the paperback appeal of Benjamin Hoff's The Tao of Pooh, Winnie-the-Pooh on Management is a must-read for anyone seeking to build their business skills but reluctant to become mired in an unnecessarily complex tome.
