Winny-Puh L'orsetto Winnie-the-Pooh in Italian - Tapa blanda

Winnie-the-Pooh is the most popular children's book in the world. It has been translated into Italian four different times.

These differences are usually decided by the market place. On that standard, this translation by Maria Cristina Gaetani has clearly won because this translation has been reprinted three times by different publishers.

Ishi Press has reprinted translations of Winnie-the-Pooh into 26 languages thus far. We have published it in Armenian, Bengali, Bulgarian, Chinese, Danish, Dutch, Esperanto, Finnish, French, German, Greek, Hungarian, Icelandic, Italian, Korean, Persian, Polish, Russian, Spanish, Yiddish, Hindi, Urdu, Khowar, Kalasha and Latin. We have six more languages lined up. The two countries where Winnie-the-Pooh is the most popular are surprisingly Poland and Russia. Parks, fountains and streets all over Poland are named after Winnie-the-Pooh. Russia even changed the character and appearance of Winnie and made award-winning videos about “Puh” that you can find on youtube. This translation into Italian is part of project to translate Winnie-the-Pooh into other languages. The idea is children need to learn to read at an early age and the best way to teach them to read is to provide reading materials that they find interesting. Children around the world laugh when they see Winnie-the-Pooh saying and doing silly things. Since Winnie-the-Pooh is the most popular children's book world-wide, translating this book into the different languages of the world will be conducive to teaching children to read in those languages.
