Wednesday, March 5, 2014. The Real Christopher Robin and His Father. If you live to be a hundred, I want to live to be a hundred minus one day so I never have to live without you. – Winnie-the-Pooh. I discovered England through books as a child as most of us do, and of course the very earliest I recall were the enchanting poems and stories of a little boy called Christopher Robin and his small animal friends who lived forever in an enchanted forest. Somehow I came to memorize many of the poems

When I went away to college many years ago, my mother loaned my ceived on my fifth birthday-to a young co-worker to read to her children. It was never returned. But it wasn't until I watched GOODBYE CHRISTOPHER ROBIN that I became interested in reading the books. I am so very glad I did. I've only read the first one so far, and, as expected, it is a wonderful children's story; but what I didn't realize was how uniquely well-written it is. Admittedly the opening caught me off-guard and I had to re-read it twice to understand the point-of-view, but once I realized what Mr. Milne was doing, I loved it. Yes, the storytelling is simplistic. Mr. Milne is obviously writing for a very young audience.

Christopher Robin got next to zero marketing and had little buzz surrounding its release. Christopher Robin does not spend a lot of time introducing the viewer to the characters from the idyllic forest where a young British boy spent time creating adventures with his friends - Winnie the Pooh, Tigger, Piglet, Eeyore, Rabbit, Owl, Kanga and Roo. If one is not a Disney-phile, it may be hard to comprehend why a boy arrives from a tree to have picnics with animals. That said, the Winnie the Pooh, Disney lover that I am, saw so much love in this film with its themes of friendship, love, family and tenderness

Milne had already made a name for himself as a writer and playwright when his son, Christopher Robin Milne, was born on Aug. 21, 1920. For his first birthday, Christopher Robin was given a two-foot-tall, cream-colored teddy bear who he named Edward. This bear, along with an actual bear at the London Zoo named Winnie and a swan named Pooh, became the basis for Milne’s classic children’s character, Winnie the Pooh.
