80 years after House at Pooh Corner, an authorized sequel is being published.  Author David Benedictus will create an older Christopher Robin, which is about the only detail being released at this point.

One wonders if it will be a hit or miss.  Milne’s signature style would be hard to perfect and without it the book won’t feel like a sequel. 

I admit my stomach did a sour twist at the thought of a sequel, but I’m trying to be open minded.  After all, I freely ignore the Disney-fied versions of Pooh already.
