Author: Lindsay Mattick
RU Level:  1st Grade

The true story behind the creation of Winnie-the-Pooh written by the great-granddaughter of the veterinarian/soldier who rescued a baby bear during World War I and cared for her until she was given to the London Zoo.  A darling book that explains how the famous literary bear came to be and includes pictures and documents from the real characters.

This 2016 Caldecott winner will be a great opportunity to discuss that authors' inspiration often comes from real life and people.
