Now I Am Six Again

I’m going to be six again. Daddy wrote this book when I was younger but sometimes, well, I miss Pooh and Piglet.  So now I’m going to be the boy he wrote this for and I hope you can join me.

As you read this book, I think you should read the poems out loud and whenever you see I’ve written something extra, stop reading, and do that.

Then keep reading and you can be six again with me.

Christopher Robin Milne

Take a journey, both physical and imaginative, through A. A. Milne's beloved children's book Now We Are Six. Christopher Robin Milne, his son, has annotated his father's copy with ways to re-experience six-ness. You'll be asked to imagine, dream, wander, and even sneeze as you read through the annotated poems, for a contemplative escape to a happy childhood, one you can reclaim as your own.

This game was designed for the Gaming Like It's 1927 jam using works released into the public domain in the United States in 2023. The text and images are recreated from scratch to match the aesthetic of the original, but do not perfectly match the original volume's layout.

Now I Am Six again is a work-in-progress as Christopher has only annotated a handful of poems of the many in his father's original book. You are invited to complete the rest if you are waiting for more.
