Book Review
Can you believe Winnie-the-Pooh by A.A. Milne is almost 100 years old? I was shocked when I found out... I thought it was from the 1950s or 1960s... nonetheless, it's an amazing memory. So many fun characters, great childhood moment and even some adult ones come from these books and the subsequent mass market media that came from them. It always had me wondering... what exactly is a "pooh," as in bear... Christopher Robin's made-up name, so it seems, came from a childhood bear and the name of a swan. Interesting... I also never knew when I read this years ago that it was from an entire series. I'm sure I read more, but I don't know specifically which ones! I'm sure we've all seen some adaption of this childhood favorite. Kids love animals. Kids love talking animals. Kids love stuffed toys. It's just perfect for them.

Aw happy you read this James. I had no idea it is almost 100 years old ! I love this book so much. Love the fact it is not just for children. A timeless classic imho. I actually have a sign in my yard the reads "House at Pooh Corner". There are many lessons for young and old(er) alike in this book. Really great review !
