Winnie-The-Pooh And The Royal Birthday sees Pooh travel to Buckingham Palace with Christopher Robin, Piglet and Eeyore to deliver a special present to the 90-year-old monarch, Sky News reports

The Queen is pictured in the book listening to Pooh as he recites her a birthday "hum" after a chance encounter when he spots her going for a stroll outside the Palace.

An audio video version narrated by Oscar winning actor Jim Broadbent has also been released.

As a youngster, Princess Elizabeth was said to have loved the Pooh tales.

She was also given a Christopher Robin china nursery set with hand-coloured pictures of Christopher Robin, Pooh and friends as a child.
