Winnie the Pooh is celebrating its 100th anniversary in 2026 marking the publication of A.A. Milne's first book in October 1926, though Pooh first appeared in a newspaper story on Christmas Eve 1925, leading to widespread celebrations, merchandise, and new editions in late 2025 and 2026 to honor the classic character's legacy.
