Owl is a fictional character in the books Winnie-the-Pooh (1926) and The House at Pooh Corner (1928) by A. A. Milne. He presents himself as a mentor and teacher to the others. He was not based on a stuffed toy, so in the illustrations, he looks more like a live creature. Although he is perceived as wise, sometimes, he has trouble spelling and pronouncing some words and sentences correctly. Still, Winnie the Pooh and others rely on him for his advice and wisdom, especially whenever in trouble or during emergencies.
