My little niece loves anything to do with Winnie the Pooh and so when I saw ‘Let’s Go Outside’ in Tesco for £2 I just had to get it for her.
‘Let’s Go Outside’ is a musical board book based on the excitable character of Tigger. Tigger gets up to all kinds of mischief while playing with his friends Winnie the Pooh, Eeyore, Piglet and Roo in the Hundred-Acre Wood. He splashes in water, makes mud, flies a kite, sits around a campfire telling stories, making a sticky mess with his marshmallows and at the end of the day needs a good scrub in the tub!
Each double page has a vibrant illustration on the left-hand page and the words on the right-hand page, along with a little bee buzzing about the pages inviting you to sing along with Tigger. This is where the magic of the book is… In the bottom right-hand corner is a red button and you’re invited to push the button and sing along with Tigger. Pushing the button launches into Tigger’s song… “The wonderful thing about Tiggers, Is Tiggers are wonderful things…”. It’s only a short song, but it’s one of those songs that has a tendency to stick in your head and you’ll notice that as soon as the song has finished your little one will press the button again… and again and again!
My niece just loves this book. She has sat on my knee or her granddad’s knee countless times to have it read to her and, of course, has pressed the button many, many times. She loves to follow the bee on each page too, as well as look at the colourful illustrations.
‘Let’s Go Outside’ was well worth the £2 I paid for it and I wouldn’t have minded paying the full price of £4.99 for it either. The book has already been read countless times and I’m sure it’ll be read many more times in the future too.
Buy Let’s Go Outside! from the Book Depository.

Winnie the Pooh is my all-time favorite. There is absolutely no other cartoon character I prefer to read about or watch.

Hi Nikki-ann,
As a family, we are all Disney mad.
As we have vacationed in Disneyworld, Florida, on many occasions, my nieces have grown up with all these great and colourful characters, although Winnie-the-pooh and all his friends have always been firm favourites.
