My mother used to read Winnie the Pooh to me before I could read, and it was my favourite book as a preschooler - I'm sure she was very patient, reading it over and over. Including When We Were Very Young and Now We Are Six. I can still recite many of the poems in it.
Since it has been translated into many languages, it's one of the books I make a point of getting and reading in languages I am interested in - Latin, Esperanto, French - I even have a German translation of it somewhere. Though my German isn't nearly good enough to understand it.
