Milne is quite simply one of the most famous children's authors of all time. He created Winnie-the-Pooh and his friends Piglet, Eeyore, Tigger, Kanga and Roo based on the real nursery toys played with by his son, Christopher Robin. And those characters not only became the stars of his classic children's books, Winnie-the-Pooh and The House at Pooh Corner, and his poetry for children, they have also been adapted for film, TV and the stage. Through his writings for Punch magazine, A.A. Milne met E.H. Shepard. Shepard went on to draw the original illustrations to accompany Milne's classics, earning him the name "the man who drew Pooh." Andrew Grey is an author who has written several 'Winnie-The-Pooh' titles for Disney including, 'Pooh's Christmas Adventure', 'Winnnie-the-Pooh ABC', and 'Wonderful Words with Winnie-the-Pooh'.
