Winnie, a young bear cub, wanted to be with and help out her new owner, Harry, with his work as a veterinarian in the war. But, Harry was being moved to France and it was too dangerous for Winnie to join. So, Winnie was placed in the London Zoo where she grew to feel lonely. Then, a boy named Christopher came along to become Winnies new best friend, to show her love and to use her as an inspiration for the toy stuffed bear he owned. Finally, Winnie learned the impact she has on others and the place she has in the world.
