A treasured toy returns

In a touching moment, the queen presented the library with a previously missing Winnie-the-Pooh stuffed toy, reuniting Roo with Kanga. The original toys that inspired A.A. Milne’s tales have been on display at the NYPL’s main branch since 1987, with Pooh marking his 100th anniversary this year.

Charles in Harlem and the wider US visit

Meanwhile King Charles visited a Harlem community group using sustainable after-school urban farming to mentor young people affected by food insecurity — linking his interests in sustainability and youth empowerment. The couple began the four-day U.S. visit in Washington, D.C., where they met President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania, attended a British Embassy garden party and a White House state dinner; Charles also addressed a joint meeting of Congress. Their tour will wrap with a reception for The King’s Trust and further events in Virginia celebrating America’s 250th.
