His son was born in August 1920 and in 1924 Milne produced a collection of children's poems When We Were Very Young, which were illustrated by Punch staff cartoonist E. H. Shepard.

Looking back on this period ( in 1926 ) Milne observed that when he told his agent that he was going to write a detective story, he was told that what the country wanted from a " Punch humorist " was a humorous story ; when two years later he said he was writing nursery rhymes, his agent and publisher were convinced he should write another detective story ; and after another two years he was being told that writing a detective story would be in the worst of taste given the demand for children's books.

The success of his children's books was to become a source of considerable annoyance to Milne, whose self-avowed aim was to write whatever he pleased and who had, until then, found a ready audience for each change of direction: he had freed pre-war Punch from its ponderous facetiousness ; he had made a considerable reputation as a playwright ( like his idol J. M. Barrie ) on both sides of the Atlantic ; he had produced a witty piece of detective writing in The Red House Mystery ( although this was severely criticised by Raymond Chandler for the implausibility of its plot ).

Even his old literary home, Punch, where the When We Were Very Young verses had first appeared, was ultimately to reject him, as Christopher Milne details in his autobiography The Enchanted Places, although Methuen continued to publish whatever Milne wrote, including the long poem ' The Norman Church ' and an assembly of articles entitled Year In, Year Out ( which Milne likened to a benefit night for the author ).

Besides fulfilling other journalistic engagements, Beckett was on the staff of Punch from 1874 to 1902, edited the Sunday Times 1891-1895, and the Naval and Military Magazine in 1896.

Shepard was recommended to Milne by another Punch staffer, E. V. Lucas in 1923.

The theater owed its name to Guignol, which was a traditional Lyonnaise puppet character, joining political commentary with the style of Punch and Judy.

For the last ten years of his life, he was on the regular staff of Punch.

He was one of the two founders ( 1841 ) of the satirical and humorous magazine Punch, and the magazine's joint-editor, with Mark Lemon, in its early days.

Punch ( magazine ) | Punch magazine was co founded by Mayhew in 1841.

Punch was an unexpected success, yet, a year later, Mayhew resigned as joint editor in 1842.

Tenniel is most noted for two major accomplishments: he was the principal political cartoonist for England ’ s Punch magazine for over 50 years, and he was the artist who illustrated Lewis Carroll ’ s Alice ’ s Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking-Glass.

As the influential result of his position as the chief cartoon artist for Punch ( published 1841 – 1992, 1996 – 2002 ), John Tenniel, through satirical, often radical and at times vitriolic images of the world, for five decades was and remained Great Britain ’ s steadfast social witness to the sweeping national changes in that nation ’ s moment of political and social reform.

At Christmas 1850 he was invited by Mark Lemon to fill the position of joint cartoonist ( with John Leech ) on Punch.

Punch was no different and contained illustrations such as Tenniel's " Justice " and " The British Lion's Vengeance on the Bengal Tiger ".

When examined separately from the book illustrations he did over time, Tenniel ’ s work at Punch alone, expressing decades of editorial viewpoints, often controversial and socially sensitive, was created to ultimately echo the voices of the British public, and is in itself massive.

By 1866 he was " able to command ten to fifteen guineas for the reworking of a single Punch cartoon as a pencil sketch ", alongside his " comfortable " Punch salary " of about £ 800 a year ".

One contemporary who tried to bridge the gap, William Makepeace Thackeray, established a tentative cordial relationship in the late 1840s only to see everything collapse when Disraeli took offence at a burlesque of him which Thackeray penned for Punch.

In the early 18th century, the marionette theatre starring Punch was at its height, with showman Martin Powell attracting sizable crowds at both Covent Garden and Bath, Somerset.

As expressed by Peter Fraser in Punch & Judy ( 1970 ), " the drama developed as a succession of incidents which the audience could join or leave at any time, and much of the show was impromptu.

" This was elaborated by George Speaight in his Punch & Judy: A History ( 1970 ), who explained that the plotline " is like a story compiled in a parlour game of Consequences ... the show should, indeed, not be regarded as a story at all but a succession of encounters.

A visit to a Punch and Judy Festival at Punch's " birthplace " in London's Covent Garden will reveal a whole variety of changes that are rung by puppeteers from this basic material and although scripts have been published at different times since the early 19th century, none can be claimed as being the definitive traditional script of Punch and Judy.

While the Victorian version of the show drew on the morality of its day, the Punch & Judy College of Professors considers that the 20th-and 21st-century versions of the tale have evolved into something more akin to a primitive version of The Simpsons, in which a bizarre family is used as vehicle for grotesque visual comedy and a sideways look at contemporary society.

Another explanation is that Punch ’ s treatment of his shrewish wife, as well as others, is so exaggerated that it is clearly not a representation of good behavior, but more of a commentary on how we all have felt toward someone at one time or another, especially a significant other.
