Chris James Posted December 14, 2014 Report Share Posted December 14, 2014 I think we need to start a campaign in the literary world and it would be in support of young readers...Winnie the Pooh needs to go home. http://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/behind-bullet-proof-glass-winnie-the-pooh-is-in-jail/ar-BBgNT9D?ocid=LENDHP Being relegated to a basement room is horrid destiny for a stuffed toy that inspired the hearts and minds of millions of children. In America Pooh is best known as an animated character ala Disney which is not a very literary accomplishment. I would imagine as they suggest in the article that a Pooh Museum in England would attract the thousands of children these stuffed toys do not see now. Send them home. Link to comment
Cole Parker Posted December 14, 2014 Report Share Posted December 14, 2014 I would sincerely hope that the majority of American kids do not only know Pooh through his mistreatment by the Disney crew. Milne's books are among the best ever written for children. They need to be read aloud to our young ones. C Link to comment

JamesSavik Posted December 15, 2014 Report Share Posted December 15, 2014 < Why are those Polish perverts so interested in Pooh's junk? Link to comment
Merkin Posted December 15, 2014 Report Share Posted December 15, 2014 I suspect the only way this might work out is by embarrassing the New York Public Library governors into giving Pooh and his compatriots up. A letter-writing campaign by kids might do the trick. Link to comment

I think he should probably come out here. The Norton Simon or the Huntington would make good homes. C Link to comment
Merkin Posted December 16, 2014 Report Share Posted December 16, 2014 I see that the "London Bridge Syndrome" is alive and well in our western territories. Link to comment
Cole Parker Posted December 16, 2014 Report Share Posted December 16, 2014 Hey, they're taking good care of it. London didn't want it. Probably would have set it by the side of the road for the trash man to collect. Link to comment
TalonRider Posted December 17, 2014 Report Share Posted December 17, 2014 I saw this in Monday 12/15/14 Comics. Link to comment
