![]() ![]() The first part is just me in a nutshell and the second part… should be. “Supposing it didn’t,” said Pooh after careful thought. “Supposing a tree fell down Pooh when we were underneath it?” The always anxious Piglet. ![]() I was reading through and one quote just leapt out at me concerning my anxiety of all things. It was a bit snobbish of me really to not expect to find anything there. How Pooh, quiet the poet at times, can be so damned deep that I know eventually I’ll read these stories again. Pooh is a brainless bear yes (they say it in the stories Pooh knows it) and Eeyore is somehow more of a grump than I remember and I started this off as something of a snob.īut by the end I was tearing up and impressed by how many things still carry over into adulthood. Growing up I always had a closer affinity for not just Pooh but the whole gang in the Hundred Acre Woods.Īlso I just think there’s more meat to his stories. Honestly the Beatrix Potter and A Madeline Treasury were really cute, great illustrations and I’m glad I read them but definitely not my thing. ![]() ![]() I completely forgot when I was patting myself on the back about reading Pride and Prejudice last month that I had also read the Complete Works of Beatrix Potter. ![]()
