A guy with real staying power is our old friend Winnie the Pooh. A.A. Milne's timeless stories about a boy and his bear have been delighting children since 1928! Little ones love Pooh, but tough 10-year-olds also have plenty to say about him. As one almost-11-year-old told me, "Winnie the Pooh rules!"
Christopher Robin once asked Pooh "Pooh, PROMISE you won't forget about me, ever. Not even when I'm a hundred." Of course, Pooh promised to remember, and he has. Just like the rest of us.
