Favorite "Old" Item {Contest Post #3}

A picture’s worth a thousand words 
But you can’t see what those 
Shades of gray keep covered
You should have seen it in color

I love old things.
I love things with character.
A story - bet you never heard that before?

I bought this book in a tiny bookstore in Norwich, England last summer.
"Now We Are Six" by AA Milne is just the sweetest little book and was originally published in 1927 in London.

I often grab it before I write blog posts and look at the pictures,
read the sweet "through child's eyes" poems
and mostly get inspired.
(look at the cute little bear butt climbing up the stairs hahah oh man I love it.)

It's a secret, but this will be a part of the gift basket in some way ;)

But I'll give you a hint:
This is my favorite poem in the book :D
And try not to just skip over it! 
It's so so so cute!
You have to read it!

"Let's look for dragons," I said to Pooh.
"Yes, let's," said Pooh to Me
We crossed the river and found a few -
"Yes those are dragons all right," said Pooh.
"As soon as I saw their beaks I knew.
That's what they are," said Pooh, said he.
"That's what they are," said Pooh.

"Let's frighten the dragons," I said to Pooh.
"That's right," said Pooh to Me.
"I'm not afraid," I said to Pooh,
And I held his paw and shouted "Shoo!
Silly old dragons!" - and off they flew.
"I wasn't afraid," said Pooh, said he,
"I'm never afraid with you."

So wherever I am, there's always Pooh,
There's always Pooh and Me.
"What would I do?" I said to Pooh,
"If it wasn't for you," and Pooh said: "True,
It isn't much fun for One, but Two
Cant stick together," says Pooh, says he.
"That's how it is," says Pooh.

Did you read it?
You better have!
