In the 1925 Christmas Eve edition of The London News, English author A.A. Milne published “The Wrong Sort of Bees,” the first story that mentioned his lovable bear Winnie The Pooh by name.

For many Chinese, the Winnie the Pooh character is a playful taunt of President Xi Jinping. Chinese censors in the past briefly banned social media searches for the bear in mainland China.
