Summary:
After doing his stretches in the morning, Pooh went for a walk humming as he went. He came across a hole and knew that rabbit must live in it. He called into the hole asking if anyone was home. A voice replied "Nobody." Pooh thought that someone must be home and so he asked again. Finally rabit, finding out it was Pooh Bear, let him in. Rabbit fed him honey and milk, Pooh's favorite. When pooh was done he told rabbit it was time for him to go. When he tried to make it out of the hole, he got stuck! Rabbit couldn't even pull him out. So, Rabbit went and got Christopher Robin . Christopher Robin decided that Pooh had to wait there for a week so that he could slim down. That was the only way he was going to get out of the hole. Rabit used Pooh's legs as towel holders and C.R. read Pooh stories everyday. Finally, when a week was up, they got all of their forest friends, and together, they were able to pull Pooh out!

Who would benefit from reading this book/ Who would I recommend this book to?
Little kids love reading Winnie the Pooh. He is a silly old bear with lots of silly friends. Their stories are fun to read about. I recommend this to any little kid!

What problems/conflicts could this book potentially?
I don't think there are any problems

My Reaction:
I love Winnie the Pooh. This was the original version of the story so it was cool to see the changes from then and now. The illustrations are a lot more simple and they aren't colored, but it is fun.
