Walt Disney Meets Winnie The Pooh

When Winnie The Pooh And The Honey Tree was released in 1966, the film was kindly reviewed in America, but perhaps not quite so kindly in Britain, where one critic accused Walt of "murdering" Pooh.

Did you Know...?
 
Winnie's real-life inspiration was a small female black bear cub named Winnipeg (Winnie) at the local zoo. Christopher Robin, son of "Pooh" author A.A. Milne, loved the bear cub so much, he renamed his teddy bear after her!

Heffalumps are honey-hungry animals that look like elephants while Woozles are another "monster" of the Hundred Acre Wood, similar to Heffalumps.

Walt Disney's daughters were big Pooh fans, inspiring their father to buy the rights to the Pooh stories.

  In 1993, the Walt Disney Company acknowledged that Pooh Bear was second only to Mickey Mouse as Disney's most-loved and trusted character. In 1996, after the second release of The Many Adventures Of Winnie The Pooh, Pooh pulled into first place.
