The TARDIS at Pooh Corner is a single-story, multi-chaptered zine by Peter David.
It was also printed in Jelly Baby Chronicles #1.
In 1997, Peter David wrote: ""The Tardis at Pooh Corner" was a one-shot fanzine I published years and years ago. Telling the adventures of Dr. Pooh, a Time Lord of Very Little Brain, I printed up about 200 copies or so. Full color cover, nicely bound. I was, and am, very pleased with it. The earliest installments appeared in a fanzine called "The Jelly Baby Chronicles." But the vast majority of the stories were original to the 'zine, including "Genesis of the Heffalumps" and "Terror of the Woozles." It was published under my own name, not "Saunders." Dr. Pooh simply lived under the name of Saunders." [1]
Fan Comments
Thats just bloody brilliant !! Will the oft mentioned, but never before read(by me) Quantum Beast be recounted here ?? I'm dying to read that ... [2]
I discovered that, on his website, chapter by chapter, Peter David published an adorable little tale called Doctor Pooh. It's not quite a Doctor Who and Winnie the Pooh crossover, it's more like the story Christopher Robin would imagine if he got hooked on Doctor Who. Technically speaking, it's called The TARDIS at Pooh Corner. Winnie the Pooh is literally The Doctor, guys. Honestly, it's magical. Peter David is clearly familiar with what the tone of Winnie the Pooh should be and writes it wonderfully, combined with the childlike wonder of DW[3]
