Oh dear, Please JKD, at least have the decency to use the original (E H Shepard) illustrations, not bloody Disney (who changed too much for this Englishman's taste).

For instance, try this one: http://yorktown.library.pitt.edu/libraries/is/enroom/illustrators/images/shepard/pooh.gif

It always strikes me that Disney made Pooh a completely different character, and slightly senior to the reader. The original wasn't.
PS. It's worth noting that UK makers of stuff missed another opportunity to do something. All the illustrations of Pooh Bear feature that stupid Disney grin !
You have to look quite hard to find a real one.

Oh I understand what you are saying, but Pooh today is still who Pooh always was...the real Pooh that Milne created and wrote about in his first books. Granted, Disney reworked him and the rest of the gang (mostly for aesthetics than anything else, I believe) but the heart and soul of Pooh and Company is still there.

I stumbled across this just recently...you would probably enjoy it. These are the real Christopher Robin's original stuffed animals from Hundred Acre Wood. They look just a hair different from the ones you find in the Disney store, too. ;)

Because I have the soul of a 10-year-old boy, the concept of "Pooh aesthetics" made me snicker.

Perhaps "aesthetics" wasn't the best word choice, but I think you caught my drift.

Disney is all about marketing and as great as the original stories are; and as much as the original illustrations tug at your heartstrings for the sake of nostalgia if nothing else; Pooh and Company as originally seen, would have been a difficult if not near impossible sell as stuffed animals and in all the other branded items that have been cranked out over the last three or four decades. Yes, perhaps there is something lost in the conversion from the originals, to the far more recognized Pooh and gang of today. But in the long run, isn't the ultimate goal for those of us with "souls of a ten-year-old boy" for Pooh to attract followers and eventually have them read those original stories that had so much to say to both children and adults?

I know I have a giant Pooh and an even bigger Tigger pair of stuffed animals that keep making cameo appearances in my trilogy PBatD, and the fans seem to love them almost as much as the two main characters the story is actually about. Managing to make them a part of the eroticism of the story was fun too. :D

(okay...so that proves i may have the soul of an innocent ten-year-old boy, but i also have a typical, always horny, junior high male mind at work too. ;) )
