| Winnie the Pooh | comment |
Chapter 1: In which we are introduced to Winnie-the-Pooh and his friends, and the topic begins.Winnie-the-Pooh is a British children's book written in 1926 by author A. A. Milne. The original book of stories was, famously, inspired by Milne's son Christopher Robin Milne and Christopher's assortment of stuffed animals, including a teddy bear that became Winnie-the-Pooh, a tiger that became Tigger, and a donkey that became Eeyore. Pooh and his friends live in a Forest inspired by Ashdown Forest in Sussex, where Milne had a cottage. (In the Disney version it is known as the Hundred Acre Wood, but in the original books the Hundred Acre Wood is just one section of the Forest.) Pooh, his friends, and his best friend Christopher Robin have many adventures.The first book had a sequel released in 1928 titled The House at Pooh Corner. Two books of poems — When We Were Very Young and Now We Are Six — include several poems about Winnie-the-Pooh and friends.For the many adaptations of these books, go this way.Christopher Robin Milne's original stuffed animals have been preserved◊ and are on public display. (With the exception of Roo, who was lost in an apple orchard around 1930.)Both books are in the public domain in the U.S. The first one can be read here. | |

Foul Medicine | |
| Winnie the Pooh / int_1456c9df | comment |
Foul Medicine: In The House at Pooh Corner, Roo is often given malt extract as "strengthening medicine", and he's said to think it tastes awful. Tigger, on the other hand, turns out to love it, and he eats it for him. | |

Not Where They Thought | |
| Winnie the Pooh / int_175b3658 | comment |
Not Where They Thought: Story only. In "In Which Eeyore Has a Birthday and Gets Two Presents", Piglet falls over and bursts the balloon he's meaning to give to Eeyore. He doesn't realize that the noise was the balloon popping and thinks he's blown up and been transported to the moon. In "In Which a Search is Organdized [sic] and Piglet Nearly Meets the Heffalump Again", Pooh and Piglet fall into a pit and think it's a trap dug by a Heffalump. It isn't, and neither is it the pit they dug back in "In Which Piglet Meets a Heffalump"— it's a separate pit called the Gravel Pit. | |

Abandoned Area: Pooh lives in a house with the name "Sanders" over it, despite none of the characters being able to read or spell very well. Piglet lives beside a sign that says "Trespassers W[ill Be Prosecuted]". Christopher Robin lives in a tree and his parents are missing. What happened to all the other humans in the area? Why did they leave? | |

Mythology Gag: In Winnie-the-Pooh Meets the Queen, Christopher Robin, Pooh, and his friends travel to London to meet Queen Elizabeth II for her 90th birthday. At one point, on a bus tour, they pass by Harrods and Pooh feels something familiar about the store. The original Edward Bear doll given to Christopher Robin Milne was from Harrods. | |

Signs of Disrepair: The sign over Piglet's door, reading "Trespassers W", which he claims is short for the name of his grandfather, Trespassers William, or Trespassers Will for short.

Silly Rabbit, Cynicism Is for Losers!: Rabbit delivers this to Eeyore after the latter complains about nobody paying attention to him. Rabbit pointedly tells Eeyore that he essentially brings his depressed state on himself because he's not trying. Eeyore has to make an effort to see others instead of expecting them to come to him. Eeyore surprisingly takes this to heart. | |

Alternate Catchphrase Inflection: Discussed in "A Search is Organdized", when Winnie the Pooh asserts that when a heffalump catches someone, they say, "Ho-ho!" in a gloating sort of way. But if you hum, then they'll say it again, still in a gloating way but less sure of themselves and more surprised, then if you still hum, they'll try to say it a third time but "[turn] it awkwardly into a cough" because "it isn't ho-ho-ish anymore". | |

Balloonacy | |
| Winnie the Pooh / int_66f59ad | comment |
Balloonacy: One of the earliest examples of this trope. Pooh attempts to get honey by rolling in mud (to look like a "small, black cloud") and floating on a blue balloon (to resemble the sky). One of the book's most famous illustrations is of Christopher Robin blowing up said balloon. Because this is a story told by a father to his son, Pooh gets airborne despite this. | |

Accidental Good Outcome | |
| Winnie the Pooh / int_8f4aa036 | comment |
Accidental Good Outcome: In "In Which Eeyore Has a Birthday and Gets Two Presents", Pooh tries to give honey to Eeyore for a birthday present, while Piglet tries to give him a balloon. However, the balloon pops and Pooh eats the honey. Despite this, however, Eeyore likes the burst balloon and the pot, since he enjoys putting the balloon in the pot and taking it out again over and over. In "In Which a House is Built at Pooh Corner for Eeyore", Eeyore tries to build himself a house, but doesn't do a very good job, so Pooh and Piglet mistake it for a random pile of sticks. They use said sticks to build him another house, thinking he's still homeless, and this ends up being better than the original house since it's in a warmer part of the forest. | |

Laser-Guided Karma | |
| Winnie the Pooh / int_90e31482 | comment |
Laser-Guided Karma: A mild example in In Which Piglet Meets a Heffalump. Piglet decides to make Pooh give up his honey as bait out of petty spite (so he doesn’t have to give up his “haycorns�). Pooh gets hungry during the night and decides to check whether the Heffalump has eaten the honey. He goes into the trap and gets his head stuck in the jar. Piglet thinks the Heffalump is in the pit and runs in a panic to Christopher Robin. As a result, Piglet is so humiliated upon discovering the truth, he goes back to bed “with a headache�. | |

Rabbit asks what he is looking for and Eeyore replies that he is looking for Rabbit's lost friend, a bug named Small. However, Rabbit informs him that Small has already been found (by Pooh, Piglet, and Christopher Robin). | |

Never My Fault: Pooh, after inviting himself to lunch at Rabbit's house and eating him out of house and home, gets stuck in his burrow. He proceeds to blame Rabbit for not making his front door big enough. There’s a call-back to this story in The House at Pooh Corner where, humorously, Pooh still refuses to accept that his overeating was the reason why he got stuck. | |

Cruel Elephant: The Heffalumps are depicted as elephant-like creatures on the illustrations. They are said to be malevolent beings, though their villainy mostly consists of stealing honey. That said, Piglet is utterly terrified of them. Fortunately for Pooh and his friends, everything indicates that they are just imaginary. | |

Deadpan Snarker Eeyore is good at making wry comments (his favourite kind seem to be stating that some people can enjoy themselves but not him, telling others not to blame him for things, or commenting on no one feeling sorry for him), much more so than in the Disney version. Rabbit has a couple of snarky moments as well, such as "It all comes... of eating too much!" in his debut chapter. | |

Awkward Poetry Reading | |
| Winnie the Pooh / int_dd9c010b | comment |
Awkward Poetry Reading: In "In Which Christopher Robin Takes Pooh to an Enchanted Place and We Leave Them There", Eeyore tries to write a goodbye poem, but it doesn't go well — he simply titles it "Poem", he keeps adding commentary on how good or bad the rhymes are, and at one point, he can't find a rhyme for "is", says, "Bother!", tries to find a rhyme for that, and ends up saying, "Those two 'bother's will have to rhyme with each other. Buther!". In "In Which Tigger Comes to the Forest and Has Breakfast", Pooh writes a poem that has the line "Whatever his weight in pounds, shillings and ounces". Piglet doesn't like this line, since shillings are obviously not a weight, but Pooh says that the word "wanted" to be in the poem. In "In Which Pooh Invents a New Game and Eeyore Joins In", Pooh tries to write a poem about a fir tree, and comes up with "Here is a myst'ry about a little fir tree: Owl says it's his tree and Kanga says it's her tree", but decides it doesn't make sense as Kanga doesn't have a tree. | |

Shoo Out the Clowns: The final chapter of The House at Pooh Corner does away with the lighthearted narrative, opening with “Christopher Robin was going away�. The only aspect of levity comes from Eeyore's “Goodbye� poem, which degenerates into an absentminded ramble. When Christopher Robin is given the poem, Eeyore storms off, and everyone except Pooh quietly disappears. Children listening to the story, like Pooh, will likely not understand the implications of what Christopher Robin is talking about, but the adults will be moved by it. | |

| Winnie the Pooh / int_fa6bfde9 | comment |
Have a Gay Old Time: It's somewhat impressive that a character named "Pooh" has managed to endure as long as it has with the same name, since the connotations of the word have changed a lot since the original book was printed. Probably because the toilet humor version is spelled differently. The News Quiz, however, was highly amused with a branding magazine talking about kids having "Pooh on their pyjamas, and Pooh on their facecloths". "Pooh" as an expression of contempt or annoyance still exists in the English language, even if it's not as commonly used as it once was. In France, "Pooh" is how the word "Pou", meaning "Louse" is pronounced. Now, nowadays, this is inconsequential, since he's mostly known under the alias of "Winnie l'ourson". In the early French translations of the books, he was known as "Winnie-le-Pouh", which was changed in later printings. | |

The Power of Friendship: A major theme. The friendship between Christopher Robin, Pooh, Piglet and the rest of the gang is what drives the story. | |
