A.A. Milne

In 1882, A.A. Milne was born. Milne is probably not as well known as his literary creation, Winnie-the-Pooh, but he was more than just a children's author. For more information, we recommend you visit The Playful Antiquarian's post about Milne. In that entry, he mentions numerous biographies about Milne (and one volume of literary criticism that also contains information about J.M. Barrie/Peter Pan & Lewis Carroll/Alice in Wonderland, et. al.).
