Winnie the Pooh, the self-described bear of "very little brain" who has charmed generations with his homespun and heartfelt wisdom, is turning 100. Disney is holding a year-long celebration of the bear, whose image is found all over the planet.

Mark Henn, Animator said  "Pooh definitely is a bringer of joy. And he's very calm. You never see Pooh get overly flustered, even when he does get upset, he still, there's a calmness to his demeanor, which I think most people really gravitate to."

The beloved children's character ambled into the world in 1926 in a book written by English author A.A. Milne, and illustrated by E.H. Shepard.
