A. A. Milne/YMMV

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • Puppy Love: Christopher Robin and Anne, in some of the children's verse, for example "Buttercup Days" in Now We Are Six. Note that, like C. R. Milne, Anne was a real person; Now We Are Six is dedicated "To Anne Darlington, Now She Is Seven And Because She Is So Speshul". In fact, when Christopher married Lesley de Selincourt at the age of 28, his parents disapproved at least partly because she wasn't Anne.
