Beschreibung

<p><b>This heartwarming story, paired with evocative illustrations, brings to life the story of the real bear who inspired <i>Winnie the Pooh</i>--the perfect gift for the 100th anniversary of the beloved storybook.</b><br><br>When Harry Colebourn saw a baby bear for sale at the train station, he knew he could care for it. Harry was a veterinarian. But he was also a soldier in training for World War I. Harry named the bear Winnie, short for Winnipeg, his company's home town, and he brought her along to the training camp in England. Winnie followed Harry everywhere and slept under his cot every night. Before long, she became the regiment's much-loved mascot.<br><br>But who could care for the bear when Harry had to go to the battleground in France? Harry found just the right place for Winnie while he was away -- the London Zoo. There a little boy named Christopher Robin--who would inspire the character of the same name in the <i>Winnie the Pooh</i> books--came along and cared for the beloved bear.</p>
