Winnie the Pooh

He was recently in the news at BBC. It seems that a new book is coming out with his official stamp of approval...maybe a bear paw?

Then this is about the real bear who inspired the story.

I recently watched the movie about the real bear.

When I was looking through some old files I found some information about the stuffed animals.
"The REAL Winnie-the-Pooh won't be found on a video, in a movie, on a T-shirt or a lunchbox. Since 1987, the REAL Pooh and four of his best friends--Eeyore, Piglet, Kanga, and Tigger--have been living at The New York Public Library."

There was some discussion about sending him back to the U.K. but he has decided to stay put.
