Jane Riordan originally trained to be a primary school teacher but her love of children's books led to a career in publishing. Since then, she has edited and written countless books for children, most notably Winnie-the-Pooh Goes to London and Once There Was a Bear. The official Winnie-the-Pooh prequel is written in the style of the original Winnie-the-Pooh stories by A.A.Milne with illustrations created by Mark Burgess, that echo E.H.Shepard's iconic original decorations.
