In 1914, Harry Colebourn, a veterinarian on his way to tend horses in World War I, followed his heart and rescued a baby bear. He named her Winnie, after his hometown of Winnipeg, and he took the bear to war.
Harry Colebourn's real-life great-granddaughter tells the true story of a remarkable friendship and an even more remarkable journey--from the fields of Canada to a convoy across the ocean to an army base in England...
And finally to the London Zoo, where Winnie made another new friend: a real boy named Christopher Robin.
Before Winnie-the-Pooh, there was a real bear named Winnie. And she was a girl!

《寻找小熊维尼》讲述了一个真实的故事。故事中的人类主角是作者的曾外祖父哈利•科尔伯恩。哈利在前往欧洲参加一战途中，用20美元从猎人手里买下了一头失去父母的小熊，并给这头小熊起名叫“维尼(winnie)”。他与维尼形影不离，彼此产生了深厚的感情。但战争一触即发，他*终不得不将维尼送去伦敦动物园照管。分别之际，他告诉维尼：尽管他们即将分离，但*重要的是他永远爱它，而它永远是自己的维尼。
后来，一个叫克里斯托弗•罗宾（Christopher Robin）的小男孩儿经常到动物园来看维尼，甚至把自己的玩具熊也起名叫“维尼”。维尼有了新朋友。克里斯托弗•罗宾的父亲是一位作家，他据此创作了一系列童话故事，于是便有了后来家喻户晓的“小熊维尼(Winnie the Pooh)”
