 Christopher was so taken with her that he named his teddy bear after her, which became the inspiration for Milne's fictional character in the books "Winnie-the-Pooh" (1926) and "The House at Pooh Corner" (1928).Milne also included several poems about Winnie-the-Pooh in the children’s poetry books "When We Were Very Young" and "Now We Are Six".All four volumes were illustrated by E. H. Shepard.
