Now we are six

by A. A. Milne

Illustrated by Ernest H. Shepard

"Now We Are Six" by A. A. Milne is a collection of children's poetry published in 1927, with illustrations by E. H. Shepard. This second poetry collection follows Milne's earlier work and contains thirty-five poems, including eleven featuring Winnie-the-Pooh. The poems explore themes of childlike innocence and the unique perspective of a six-year-old child. The title comes from the final poem, where a child declares their intention to stay six forever, capturing that special age between early childhood and growing up.
