It took them only nine decades to meet, but the encounter was worth the wait.
Queen Elizabeth meets Pooh Bear in a new book celebrating the pair's milestone birthdays: they both turned 90 this year!
In "Winnie-the-Pooh And The Royal Birthday," Disney celebrates Queen Elizabeth's 90th birthday and Winnie-the-Pooh's 90th anniversary.
3-year-old Prince George also makes a cameo appearance in the book (with his signature blue cardigan), reacting excitedly when Piglet hands him a red balloon.
Disney, which owns the rights to the childhood series, released the new book "to celebrate 90 years of two much-loved British icons," it said in a news release.
An audio version of the story is narrated by Oscar-winning actor Jim Broadbent.
