Misshelved: Winnie the Poe

Went to the children’s classics section in search of some light reading…now I am just wondering how many poor young Winnie-the-Pooh fans have been traumatized by Poe instead…

Perhaps Eeyore likes Poe’s stories. “Nevermore” seems like his type of vocabulary.

Still, “Welcome to your nightmares” is a daunting phrase to put on a book beside a beloved nursery classic.

Oh, how I love when shelving decisions go awry. Endless amusement!
