The adventures of Christopher Robin, Winnie-the-Pooh and all their friends in the storied Forest around Pooh Corner.

As long as there are children,the stories of Christopher Robin, Pooh, Piglet, Eeyore, Rabbit, Owl, Kanga, Roo, and Tigger will delight them. Eeyore is the perfect pessimist, while Pooh is the open-minded one for whom the world remains a wonder. Kanga proves the best mother, not only for Roo, but Tigger. Tigger is happy and bouncy-because he's Tigger. Piglet shows himself more than once to be a hero.

Christopher Robin is not always in the forrest, and we learn that he is going to school in the morning-with or without the Spotted or Herbaceous Backson. As Christopher Robin grows, he gradualy leaves the forest and his friends behind. Yet,we must always remember, as Christopher Robin's father reminds us, "Somewhere, a little boy and his bear will always be playing!"
