Winnie the Pooh A.A. Milne children's books history and literature lit culture and society

Winnie-the-Pooh made its debut on February 3, 1924 and was inspired by the beloved teddy bear of A.A. Milne’s four-year-old son, Christopher Robin. His original bear, named Edward and eventually renamed to Winnie-the-Pooh, survives and now lives at the New York Public Library. Pictured above, Edward Bear with his friends – Piglet, Tigger, Eeyore and Kanga – in the NYPL collection. 

Celebrate Pooh’s birthday with this rare and wonderful recording of Milne reading from his classic.
