I Remember
Save Christopher Robin!
Press Release:
Campaign to Save Christopher Robin Launched
- Multi-National of Very Little Brain Must Change Course.
Storynory.com, the fast-growing children's story website, has launched a website to save Christopher Robin.
Disney said this week that the central character in the much-loved stories created by AA Milne was going to be downgraded in favour of a Tom-Boyish girl character. Even Pooh won't have the prominence he once did.
"We want to use the power of the internet to show Disney that it has made a mistake," said Storynory founder Hugh Fraser. "Even a Multi-National of Very Little Brian understands the power of the market. These stories are classics, and shouldn't be re-written in this way."
At the storynory.com website, people can register their comments on Disney's decision, and send in e-mails of support. Storynory will collect the e-mails, and create an online petition to be forwarded to Disney. "With enough support from the public, there is no doubt they will change their minds," said Fraser.
