Also affectionately known as Pooh or Pooh Bear, he's probably the most famous bear in the world known to millions around the world. Pooh is created by A.A Milne and named after a toy bear owned by his son, Christopher Robin Milne. Pooh's friends which include other popular characters such as Piglet, Eeyore, Tigger, Kanga and Roo were also based on Christopher's stuffed animals.

Ashdown Forest in East Sussex, England is the setting of the Winnie the Pooh stories and its place that the Milne called home. Original versions of Winnie the Pooh stories were brought into beautiful illustrations by E.H. Shepard. Besides being a very lovable bear adored by children, Winnie the Pooh's clear-eyed wisdom also win the hearts of adults. Even decades after his first appearance, the Pooh Bear continues to steal the hearts of young and old alike. Enjoy these Winnie the Pooh quotes and be enthralled by the magic of the Pooh Bear :-)
