Katie P My little brother LOVED this show as a little guy. He's 8 years younger than me so while I grew up on The New Adventures of Winnie the Pooh, he grew up on this. And, while it's not nearly as good as New Adventures,which was written for an older audience to begin with, it's a good show. I watched it again pretty recently and it still holds up. The stories can be a little bland at times, but it's also a show for pre-k so I'm sure kids would love it all the same. But it also retains some of what's good about the cast of characters. While it's not brilliant, it's a lot of fun for little kids and it won't bore parents who have to watch it with them. So I'd say, if your kid is a Pooh fan (or if you're like me and you're an adult Pooh fan), it's definitely worth checking out alongside New Adventures.

cornelius-balfour This film is excellent and my son loves it. Makes a real change from the usual cartoon characters. Education seems to be a key point in this series of films, teaching kids about respect and manners. The DVD contains a series of short episodes so that it becomes unnecessary to have your children sit for hours until it is finished. Certain types of kids with disabilities respond really well to this, my son has cerebral palsy and isn't interested in regular cartoons but is uncontrollably excited when this is played for him. I would rate this as 10/10, and all the better it is available on on-line auctions for a fraction of the price in the shops.

Jinn The stories in the Book are heart warming, friendly, and adults can enjoy them as mush as the children. The only negative about it, I found was the puppet animation was very mechanical and some of the characters didn't look as good as they did in the cartoons. Eeyore and Tigger looked the best, while Owl did indeed look sad! It would have been much better if it had been made as a cartoon (line drawing or CGI), as the characters would have looked more natural, movements flowed more freely and had more expression. The voices on the other hand are excellent, very warm and familiar. And the songs were nice too.

LAKLoka This new version of some Pooh tales is the most delightful addition to the Disney Channel lineup. I think that the new approach of bringing the art of Bunraku puppetry to television is not only inspired, but most welcome!It's great to see a fresh look at the bear and his pals since old episodes of "The New Adventures Of Winnie-The-Pooh" were getting kind of tiresome. It's wonderful that Pooh has some new stories to talk about in a fun and eye-popping environment. Plus, the idea of spreading the importance of literacy is a fantastic approach to get Pooh fans involved in learning.The songs are hummable and cute, and it's great to see most of the original (or second-generation) voices take part in such an experimental series. I say congrats to the crew at Disney on this terrific & adorable NEW Poo
