Piglet's Big Movie is my second favorite Disney Pooh movie, right after The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh. It was so refreshing to have direct adaptations of chapters straight out of the Milne book after the previous two films -- Pooh's Grand Adventure and The Tigger Movie -- went so far afield from the canon. Also, the Carly Simon soundtrack is plain wonderful, and I have it on regular rotation in my music mix slipping in between Metallica, Mozart, and Johnny Cash.

My sixth and final adaptation of Piglet's Big Movie is an Interactive Play-a-Sound book by writer Sarah Toast and the Disney Storybook Artists. There is a board of buttons down the right side that produce different sounds. The images on the buttons appear as icons embedded in the story to let you know when to press them. They're cute once or twice, but they get pretty tiresome pretty fast. And the writing gets a little tiresome too as the script goes overboard trying to find ways to work in the sound effects, averaging about a dozen times per page.

Most disappointing though was the way the story messes up the climactic rescue. I don't know if the writer was working with an earlier draft of the script, but what's in the book doesn't match the film and really undercuts the big theme that Piglet's friends really do need him and should appreciate his contributions more.

FOR REFERENCE:

The original film was directed by Francis Glebas, with a screenplay by Brian Hohlfeld, additional screenplay material by Ted Henning, and based on Winnie-the-Pooh and The House at Pooh Corner by A. A. Milne. The film and its many adaptations contain a framing sequence around segments adapting A. A. Milne's:
Winnie-the-Pooh Chapter 7. In Which Kanga and Baby Roo Come to the Forest, and Piglet Has a Bath
Winnie-the-Pooh Chapter 8. In Which Christopher Robin Leads an Expotition to the North Pole
The House at Pooh Corner Chapter 1. In Which A House Is Built at Pooh Corner for Eeyore.

(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:
