" He's Winnie-the-Pooh. Don't you know what ' ther ' means ? "
" Ah, yes, now I do, " I said quickly ; and I hope you do too, because it is all the explanation you are going to get.
Sometimes Winnie-the-Pooh likes a game of some sort when he comes downstairs, and sometimes he likes to sit quietly in front of the fire and listen to a story.

" What about a story ? " said Christopher Robin.
" What about a story ? " I said.
" Could you very sweetly tell Winnie-the-Pooh one ? "
" I suppose I could, " I said.
" What sort of stories does he like ? "
" About himself. Because he's that sort of Bear. "
" Oh, I see. "
" So could you very sweetly ? "
" I'll try, " I said.
So I tried.

Once upon a time, a very long time ago now, about last Friday, Winnie-the-Pooh lived in a forest all by himself under the name of Sanders.
( " What does ' under the name ' mean ? " asked Christopher Robin.
" It means he had the name over the door in gold letters and lived under it. "
" Winnie-the-Pooh wasn't quite sure, " said Christopher Robin.
" Now, I am, " said a growly voice.
" Then I will go on, " said I. )
