3. Pooh

4. Please Read on…..
In the
Hundred-Acre-Wood
lived a small bear
called
Winni the Pooh

5. Winnie the Pooh
was a very
busy bear.
He slept
till late
in the
morning

6. At midday
he ate honey.
He ate a lot,
because sleeping
gave such a
good appetite.

7. When he had eaten,
he had his
afternoon nap –
you can become
ever so tired
from eating.

8. And when
Pooh had slept,
it was 4 o’clock and
time for a little tit-bit

9. And in between
he even found
a little time for
exercise, but seeing
his round tummy
in the mirror made
him so hungry---

10. Unfortunately all his
honey jars were empty,
just as empty as
his stomach.

11. “Go visit Rabbit,”
a small voice whispered.
That voice came from
Pooh’s stomach and
it continued:
“He might have
some honey!”

12. A little while later,
Pooh arrived
at Rabbit’s house.
When his stomach
told him to do something
he always obeyed
right away.

14. “I can smell something
lovely here,”
he said sniffing
very hard.
“Helloooh, is there
anyone home?”
he shouted hopefully.

15. “Hello Pooh,
do come in!
I don’t suppose
you would like a little
something to eat?”
Rabbit said and
quickly started to clear
some jars away.

16. Pooh answered,
“Perhaps I could manage
a bit of something…”
“Well, I do have
a spot of honey,”
said Rabbit with
a little sigh.

17. But a spot of honey
was not enough for Pooh!
He put the whole jar
to his mouth.
And before Rabbit
could blink an eye,
Pooh had empties all his jars!

18. “Oh are you full?”
Rabbit asked when
Pooh had emptied
the last jar.
“Oh yes!
That was a lovely
little something,”
Pooh answered.

19. “Well, I suppose
you’ll be going now?”
sighed Rabbit.
“You must need a rest.”

20. But when Pooh
tried to crawl through
Rabbit’s door,
he was stuck –
just like a cork in a bottle.

22. Rabbit pushed and
pushed but Pooh
remained stuck.
However much
Rabbit pushed,
Pooh didn’t
move one bit!

23. Rabbit thought for a while.
Then he quickly fetched
Christopher Robin,
perhaps he could
get Pooh out.

24. “I suppose we could
wait for you to get thin,”
Christopher said to Pooh,
“Oh, no! Screamed Rabbit.
“That could take weeks!”

25. So they decided to
leave Pooh in the door
for the night and gather
help to try to pull him
out of the next day.

26. After they had left,
Kanga and Roo
had come by with
a scarf to keep
Pooh’s head
warm during the night.
.

28. In the evening Gopher
came by with his
dinner-box.
Rabbit rushed out
to prevent Gopher
from giving
any food to Pooh

29. “Why Gopher,
you are the best digger
in the wood.
Can’t you help me
to get Pooh out?”
pleaded Rabbit.

30. But Gopher said that
he could only
dig holes.
He knew nothing about
how to get bears
out of them.

32. The next morning
Christopher Robin
came back with
Roo and Eeyore.
Christopher thought that
Pooh must have
lost enough weight
to be pulled out.

34. At exactly the same time
inside Rabbit’s house,
Rabbit was determined
to get Pooh out of
his front door.

35. He started from
his back door and
ran as fast as he could
aiming straight at
Pooh’s behind.

36. ….and suddenly Pooh
shot of the hole.

37. It sounded just like a cork
being pulled out of a
bottle and Pooh flew,
through the air like
a little rocket heading
straight at a big tree.

39. “Watch out!”
Christopher Robin
shouted, but Pooh
had already disappeared
in a hole in the tree.
“Oh bother!”
he mumbled.

40. But then he noticed
where he had landed…
in a hole full of honey.
Perfect! “I’ll get a ladder
and rescue you!”

41. Christopher Robin
shouted from beneath the tree.
“Oh thank you,”
Shouted Robin,
“but there is really
no hurry!”

43. Questions:
1. What do narmally Winnie the Pooh eat?
2. Who is Christopher Robin?
3. List out all the characters in Pooh story!

44. Remarks:
 Winnie-the-Pooh, also called Pooh Bear, is a
fictional anthropomorphic bear created by A. A.
Milne. The first collection of stories about the
character was the book Winnie-the-Pooh (1926),
and this was followed by The House at Pooh
Corner (1928). Milne also included a poem about
the bear in the children’s verse book When We
Were Very Young (1924) and many more in Now
We Are Six (1927). All four volumes were
illustrated by E. H. Shepard.
