A Really Old Toy

Which one of these is not like the others: Katniss Everdeen, Harry Potter, Percy Jackson, or Winnie-the-Pooh? If you said Pooh Bear, you're right. Why? Because he's not a human? Well, neither is Harry Potter. He's a wizard. And Percy is a demigod. And Katniss is a mockingjay. (Duh.) There is another difference between Pooh and the other characters: he actually existed! Your students will love reading about the real-deal Pooh almost as much as the other kids in these surely-not-staged photos.
