It's been a while since I reall all of the Winnie-the-Pooh stories, and I loved this re-read! Eeyore, for all his gloominess, will always be my favorite 🌧💙

#OnThisDay in 1926 A.A. Milne's Winnie-the-Pooh was first published. Inspired by Milne's son Christopher Robin and a female black bear from Canada, the book was an immediate success. Christopher Robin Milne's original stuffies which inspired Pooh and his friends were donated in 1987 to the New York Public Library. After the real Winnie passed, they found evidence of severe gum disease, likely from the honey buns fed to her by fans #HistoryGetsLIT

LeahBergen Love this! And I made a point of seeing the originals at the NYPL when I visited. ❤️❤️ 1y
CarolynM ❤️ I love the stories, but knowing how the real Christopher Robin felt casts quite a shadow. (edited) 1y
Aimeesue @LeahBergen Me too! First stop after Patience and Fortitude ❤️ I also stumbled on to a first edition of The House on Pooh Corner last year, which, obviously, I threw my arms around and refused to let go of. As one does with these things. 1y

Ummmm, anyone remember that Christopher Robin SHOT Winnie the Pooh with GUN?!!! I am listening to the fireside chat version (which reads from an unabridged version of the book) and OMG!!! I remember in the animated show it was a sling shot...wasn't it?

Pooh has a rifle when he is scared of the huffalumps, but I don't remember CR EVER SHOOTING POOH with a GUN?

Anyone else? Am I just blanking out a big part of my childhood????

MoonWitch94 I remember in the original cartoon movies it was like a toy pop gun….but that‘s all. 😯 2y
LibrarianRyan @MoonWitch94 okay that would make sense. But that isn't clarified in the book. 2y

Oh my gosh, I hadn't read these stories in years and had forgotten how completely delightful they are. I absolutely love the whimsical storytelling and characters. And it also reminded me that while Disney usually butchers everything they touch, they got their original Winnie-the-Pooh just right.

I loved Pooh as a kid and now even more as a parent. I know my mom read the stories and poems to us, but I‘ve never read them myself. It was fun to see what was used in the movie, and how the characters changed. I have to say, especially in The House at Pooh Corner, Eeyore‘s kind of a jerk, which bothered me. Still, I‘m looking forward to sharing these with kiddo. I was disappointed to see my copy didn‘t include the poetry books.

There was something very peaceful and magical in the hundred-acre woods. It‘s a place for discovery, where Pooh and his friends, and Christopher Robin explore and discuss life. Most important of all, #downinthewoods were the place where friendship ‘happened‘. 🌳 🌲

One of my favorite characters who fits the #MardyBum prompt is Eeyore from the Winnie the Pooh books & movies. He‘s gloomy, pessimistic, & moody but pretty lovable too. 💜 Actually I am feeling like a mardybum today since I have to go to our company picnic & softball game & have forced ‘fun‘ when I really want to stay home & read.😞

I love how the sketches on the inside are much more free form than the artwork on the cover. It really helps me to connect with the author and the vision he had for the characters.

The elements of fantasy in this book are represented through animals having human like qualities. In real life animals aren‘t capable of showing an intense amount of emotion for one another. The author did a good job of making the story believable because they are in the woods working together as friends.

This story was written in 1957 and published by the Penguin Group. I grew up on the messages and wonder that is perfectly portrayed in this modern fantasy. This is a story about everlasting friendship and trust.

Melissa_J Do you know the origins of Winnie the Pooh? He‘s based on a black bear named Winnipeg ‘Winnie‘ after the hometown of the Canadian soldier who brought him to England during WWI as his regiments mascot. When the regiment shipped out, Winnie went to London Zoo where he was visited by A.A. Milne and Christopher Robin. This rest is history 😊 (edited) 6y

Since I‘m listening to the audiobook of Winnie The Pooh, I thought I would also have some tea out of my Eeyore mug, and I would look through my Barnes & Noble leather bound book of Winnie The Pooh. And I‘ve also just remembered why I once named a teddy bear “Edward Bear” ❤️☕️

GypsyKat @TricksyTails They run sales on their leather bound classics a couple times a year. 90% of our collection was purchased at 50% off, so the sales are worth the wait. I think last year the sales were around Memorial Day and Black Friday, so maybe it‘ll be the same this year. 🤷🏻‍♀️ 6y

Day 23 #riotgrams : I don't remember *not* having these books. I suspect that the two fairy tale books are truly the oldest. The Alice book is the only one dated—when I was 5. I dislike fairy tales, but keep the books for their sentimental value. #bookyouveownedlongest
