This may be the most severely abbreviated adaptation ever 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.

Pooh wakes to a flood. Piglet is in danger. Pooh saves him. The end.

The art looks to be recycled from at least two -- or maybe even three -- previous adaptations.

Several booksellers and book sites seem to credit the text to Caroline Kenneth, but her name does not appear on the copy of the book I have borrowed.

Christopher Robin asks Pooh and his friends about the birds and the bees. They respond with examples of release, quid quo pro, and consent.

(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:
