This is a small site in tribute to one of our faves, Winnie the Pooh. The site will not be updated except for occasional link and picture additions.

Most of us are familiar with the Disney classic movie "The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh". However, Pooh started out as bedtime stories and later books. A.A. Milne, the author of the Winnie the Pooh books, told his son, Christopher Robin, stories based on toys that Christopher had in his room. Here is a picture of those original toys.

Milne was a successful author and playwrite who also wrote other children's books including "When We Were Very Young." The books Milne wrote based on Pooh and his friends were "Winnie the Pooh" and "The House at Pooh Corner". E.H. Shepherd did the original illustrations for the books

When Walt Disney decided to do a movie based on Pooh, he did it originally as featurettes including "Winnie the Pooh and the Honey Tree" and "Winnie the Pooh and the Blustery Day" which won an Academy Award. In 1967, the three featurettes became the classic Disney movie "The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh." Below is the movie poster used for this movie.
