I had no idea Christopher was a real kid. This is awesome!

This is amazing. I had never known that the inspiration for the Winnie the Pooh stories was drawn from a young child's own fantasy experiences. After seeing this picture, I had to read the wikipedia page and I was absolutely thrilled :)

I don’t understand why, but this just makes me feel sad.
