Milne's books became popular all around the world, and were loved by everyone-younge and old. For example, the characters named Eeyore, Piglet, Tigger, Kanga, and Roo were all based on more of Christopher Robin's stuffed animals, and the characters named Rabbit and Owl were actually live animals who also reside in the London Zoo. Milne was inspired by things in his own life, and used these things in his very popular books. Milne, and it was his father who began writing children's books about Winnie The Pooh's and Christopher Robin's adventures together.

The zoo treasured her because of her loving and tame behavior, and built two statues in honor of their special friend. At the London Zoo, Winnie became a friend to many, especially young Christopher Robin. The photographs that they took of Winnie became precious memories for them to take home and cherish forever. They played with her, and took great care of her, always keeping her safe and sound. Transcript: Winnie-The-Bear was so loved dearly by the soldiers.
