Winnie the Pooh is one of the best-loved figures in British children's literature.
Pooh was the creation of author A.A. Milne, who was inspired by the stuffed toys of his son Christopher Robin.
Pooh is a chubby stuffed bear with a particular fondness for honey; his friends in the Hundred Acre Wood include Eeyore the sad donkey,
Piglet the pig, and Tigger the bouncy tiger. (Christopher Robin also appears in the Pooh stories as the bear's friend and protector.)
Pooh was introduced in the poetry collection When We Were Very Young (1924) and then starred in Milne's books Winnie-the-Pooh (1926),
Now We Are Six (1927) and The House at Pooh Corner (1928).
In the 1960s Pooh was animated by Walt Disney and became a popular member of the studio's stable of characters.
Pooh is also known as Edward Bear... The original drawings of Pooh were done by illustrator Ernest H. Shepard...
Pooh is the topic of a famous pop song by Kenny Loggins, "Back to Pooh Corner."

Winnie the Pooh lives in a tree in the Forest neary the 100 Acre Wood, under the name Saunders.
He had is name door.  Nobody knows who was Saunders, the best guess is, that there was found a tree with the name Saunders on a sign. 
And we believe that was the tree where Pooh lived in the neightbourhood of Cotchford Farm.

The voice of Winnie the Pooh in the first animated film was from Sterling Holloway.
Later was it Hal Smith and Jim Cummings.
Winnie the Pooh is a bear with little brains, is a little bit slow, and he like hunny.
From the Owl he gets wise lessons.

In the classic Pooh version he wears only in the wintertime his old red t-shirt.
In the Disney version he wears always the red t-shirt.
The real (classic) pooh you can not find it on a video, a movie or dvd.
Since 1987 the real Pooh is living in the Central Children's Room at the Donnell Library Center, part of the New York Public Library.
It is open to visit them.
