Text By James Campbell. ,b>Art by E.H. Shepard.

Winnie the Pooh and his friends from the Hundred Acre Wood are some of the world's most beloved characters in children's literature. Before they appeared in millions of books, they began life in the 1920s as the product of a unique collaboration between A. A. Milne and E. H. Shepard. Author and illustrator wove images and text together in a way that was utterly original for the time. It was a process that Shepard relished, creating artwork for new editions right up until his death in 1976 at the age of 96. In this beautifully designed, full-color volume, which includes a foreword from Shepard's granddaughter, readers will not only discover the story behind this remarkable partnership, but also follow the evolution of Shepard's work, from those first tentative and never-before-seen sketches to the illustrations we know and love.

Aru Shah has a tendency to stretch the truth in order to fit in at school.

While her classmates are jetting off to family vacations in exotic locales, she'll be spending her autumn break at home, in the Museum of Ancient Indian Art and Culture, waiting for her mom to return from her latest archeological trip. Is it any wonder that Aru makes up stories about being royalty, traveling to Paris, and having a chauffeur?

One day, three schoolmates show up at Aru's doorstep to catch her in a lie. They don't believe her claim that the museum's Lamp of Bharata is cursed, and they dare Aru to prove it. Just a quick light, Aru thinks. Then she can get herself out of this mess and never ever fib again.

But lighting the lamp has dire consequences. She unwittingly frees the Sleeper, an ancient demon whose duty it is to awaken the God of Destruction. Her classmates and beloved mother are frozen in time, and it's up to Aru to save them.

The only way to stop the demon is to find the reincarnations of the five legendary Pandava brothers, protagonists of the Hindu epic poem, the Mahabharata, and journey through the Kingdom of Death. But how is one girl in Spider-Man pajamas supposed to do all that?
