Eeyore Has a Birthday is a tender and quietly humorous episode drawn from Winnie-the-Pooh (1926), focusing on the perpetually gloomy yet endearing Eeyore.
When Eeyore’s birthday is nearly forgotten, Pooh and Piglet set out—each in their own well-meaning way—to give him a present. The result is a story that gently explores friendship, thoughtfulness, and how kindness often matters more than perfection. Ernest Shepard’s classic illustrations, here presented in colour, perfectly capture Eeyore’s melancholy charm and the warmth of the Hundred Acre Wood.
Issued as part of The Original Pooh Treasury, this volume was designed as a keepsake gift edition, ideal for young readers, collectors of classic children’s books, or anyone with a nostalgic affection for Milne’s timeless characters.
The story and line illustrations are taken from Winnie-the-Pooh (1926).
This presentation edition carries a 1990 copyright by Dutton Children’s Books, with colouring of illustrations originally copyrighted in 1973 by Ernest H. Shepard and Methuen Children’s Books Ltd. Printed and bound in Italy.
