The book: Attractive, rare, and very nice First American edition of Winnie-the-Pooh, also called Pooh Bear, - a fictional anthropomorphic bear created by A. A. Milne. "Winnie-the-Pooh" is not just a story but a cherished memory for many. This particular First edition, with its rich history and unique characteristics, is a true gem for any collector or aficionado of classic children's literature.

The author: Alan Alexander Milne (18 January 1882 – 31 January 1956) was an English author, best known for his books about the teddy bear Winnie-the-Pooh and for various children's poems. Milne was a noted writer, primarily as a playwright, before the huge success of Pooh overshadowed all his previous work.
