Finding Winnie; The True Story Of The World's Most Famous Bear by Lindsay Mattoik

It is a true story about a bear named Winnie and how the story Winnie the pooh came to life. Harry is a veterinarian who takes care of animals and he finds Winnie with a trapper. He feels bad for her and pays $20 to buy the bear cub, which was a lot of money at that time. It tells about what happens to Winnie after that and even explains how Christopher Robin became friends with Winnie the Pooh.  

Winner: We chose Finding Winnie; The True Story Of The World's Most Famous Bear by Lindsay Mattick as the winner but it only won by 1 vote. Both books are amazing and they are both books that are based on true stories. This book is a little more sad than The Darkest Dark. The illustrations are realistic and help to tell the story. It has juicy words and does a good job of describing Winnie's story. It is cool how they put real photos at the end of the book that show what the characters looked like in real life. Some of us didn't know that Winnie the Pooh was based on a real live bear. It was actually cool to hear the story.
