In 1921, long before the Walt Disney Company turned Pooh (维尼熊)

into an international star of TV and films, Christopher Robin Milne was

given a toy bear on his first birthday from his father, A.A. Milne, who

bought the stuffed (填充的) animal from a store. The stuffed animal was

named Edward Bear. Years later, Edward was named Winnie. From the 第- 4 -页/共22页 time Christopher Robin Milne was a baby until he was about 8 years old,

he would receive different stuffed animals.

A.A. Milne was a famous English author. As he watched his son

interact (互动) with Winnie and friends, A.A. Milne thought his child’s

interaction with the collection of animals would make a great bedtime story.

So Milne worked with artist Ernest H. Shepard and wrote the first Winnie

the Pooh poem, where Edward Bear was known as “Teddy Bear”. The

writings appeared in Punch magazine and in the book they wrote together,

When We Were Very Young, which was published in 1924. In a four-year

period, three more books that centered on the bear and his team followed:

1926’s Winnie-the-Pooh; 1927’s Now We Are Six; and 1928’s The House at

Pooh Corner.

The books and poems about Pooh brought great success to the author,

and the characters became favorites with young children and their families

around the world. Their popularity led Disney to get the rights to make

films about the characters in 1961. Five years later, Pooh, Tigger, Piglet and

the rest of the team appeared on screen for the first time in

Winnie-the-Pooh and the Honey Tree. The characters later appeared in TV

shows, movies, video games and short films. Pooh’s most recent

appearance came last year in the popular children’s program, Doc

McStuffins, where he was a special guest.

toy bear among kids.
