This is a boxed set of four board books and four small plush toys, with the outer box doubling as a dollhouse.

The stories inside the books are mediocre itty bitty adaptations of small sections of the first three Winnie the Pooh short films that are compiled together in the feature film, "The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh." The dolls are pretty mediocre and itty bitty also.

Eeyore Saves the Day

If you ever wondered what Eeyore was doing minutes before he helped pull Pooh out of Rabbit's door that time the silly old bear got stuck there until he was thin enough to pop free, well, Eeyore was taking a nap and dreaming about Pooh surrounded by fluttering butterflies. Sooooo . . . Pooh was on Eeyore's mind because of his predicament . . . or Eeyore is precognitive, and the dream was symbolic of Pooh soon flying away free? Too deep for me.

Inspired by and partly adapting the second half of the 1966 Walt Disney short film, "Winnie the Pooh and the Honey Tree," itself an adaptation of the second chapter of A. A. Milne's Winnie-the-Pooh: In Which Pooh Goes Visiting and Gets Into a Tight Place.

Piglet Flies High

Pooh saves Piglet from being blown about by the blustery wind, and the two end up at Owl's house in time for it to be tipped over by another strong gust.

It's a short adaptation of the section of the 1968 short film Winnie the Pooh and the Blustery Day that was in turn adapted from A. A. Milne's The House at Pooh Corner Chapter 8: In Which Piglet Does a Very Grand Thing. An unsatisfying snippet.

Pooh and the Big Storm

Pooh has a nightmare after Tigger puts thoughts of Heffalumps and Woozles in his head, then he wakes up to discover himself in the midst of a flood from which he "rescues" Piglet.

It's an extremely abbreviated adaptation of the middle section of the 1968 short film Winnie the Pooh and the Blustery Day that was in turn adapted from A. A. Milne's Winnie-the-Pooh Chapter 9: In Which Piglet Is Entirely Surrounded by Water.

Tigger Bounces Back

Tigger and Roo climb a tree, but Tigger can't get down without a promise made in panic and some help from his friends.

It's a bare-bones adaptation of the last section of the 1974 short film Winnie the Pooh and Tigger Too that was in turn adapted from A. A. Milne's The House at Pooh Corner Chapter 4: In Which It Is Shown That Tiggers Don't Climb Trees.

(My Pooh Project: I love Winnie the Pooh, and so does my wife. Having a daughter gave us a chance to indoctrinate her into the cult by buying and reading her every Pooh book we came across. How many is that? I’m going to count them this year by reading and reviewing one every day and seeing which month I finally run out. Track my progress here:
