Finding Winnie: The True Story of the World's Most Famous Bear by Lindsay Mattick

5.0

I can't believe it took me this long to read this book, except that I ordered it at least three times before I finally got it; seems like it was always out of stock. From the neat argyle cover to the wonderful brushstrokes that form Winnie, the illustrations are magical... and then there's the story. How did I not know that Winnie was named after Winnipeg? Some of my fondest memories of learning to read are sitting on the couch with my dad. alternating paragraphs as we read Winnie the Pooh aloud. The inclusion of the actual photographs, the zoo accession card, and other records are a real treat.
