In 1947 the original toys Pooh , Piglet Bigger, Eeyore and Kanga went on a tour of the USA. They toured the USA visiting libraries and department stores. They ended up in Duttons Books offices and then in 1987 they were presented to the New York Public library. Where thay have been kept in a glass cage ever since. The New York Public library claim that they are as happy as they were when living in the Ashdown Forest England ! If they actually asked Pooh I am sure that he would not agree with that statement.

Pooh and his Friends want to come back home to England where they belong.

Pooh turned into a cartoon

In 1966 Disney made Winnie the Pooh and Friends into a cartoon film. The spirit of the original stories was lost. Piglet was replaced by something called a gopher and all the characters spoke with american accents. Piglet was included in the following Pooh cartoon but the gopher and other aspects remained. Winnie the Pooh has become even more popular than Disneys own original cartoon mouse Mickey.

Pooh now makes billions of dollars for Disney every year.

Pooh began life in rural England in 1926 and is now famous throughout the world.
He is the epitomy of friendship and love, which our world needs so very much.

Long Live Winnie the Pooh !
