"description": "A wartime adventure unfolds through the eyes of the world\u2019s most beloved Bear.\n\nThe story of the real bear that inspired Winnie-the-Pooh has been capturing readers\u2019 imaginations since the publication of the Caldecott Medal award-winning picture book, Finding Winnie.\n\nBut there was so much left to be told \u2013 not just about Winnie, but about the great world events she witnessed. Now, the creative team behind the bestselling picture book has reunited to bring you Winnie\u2019s Great War.\n\nIn a triumphant blending of deeply researched history and magnificent imagination, we follow our irrepressible Bear on her journey -- from her infancy in the woods of Ontario, to her unlikely friendship with Captain Harry Colebourn and her time as the mascot of the Second Canadian Infantry Brigade, to her experiences in wartime London before she met Christopher Robin Milne.\n\nTold in beautifully crafted language and infused with Sophie Blackall\u2019s irresistible renderings of an endearing bear, the book is also woven through with actual entries from Captain Harry Colebourn\u2019s wartime diaries. The result is a one-of-kind exploration of the realities of war, the meaning of courage, and the indelible power of friendship, all told through the historic adventures of one extraordinary bear",
