Rice Pudding by Alan Alexander Milne

Rice Pudding, Alan Alexander Milne was the famous writer of the much-loved Winnie the Pooh stories and is more generally known as A. A. Milne.  Born in Kilburn, London in 1882 he spent his formative years living in a small independent school which his father, John Vine Milne ran.  A. A. was fortunate to have visionary novelist H. G. Wells as one of his teachers there.

He went on to study at Trinity College, Cambridge  after studying first at Westminster School.  Up at Cambridge his writing talents blossomed and was soon noticed by the humorous magazine “Punch”.  He was invited to contribute whimsical articles and poems at first and later was appointed assistant editor.
