Sing Ho! for the life of a Bear!
Sing Ho! for the life of a Bear!
I don't much care if it rains or it snows,
'Cos i've got a lot of honey on my nice new nose,
I don't much care if it rains or it thaws,
'Cos I've got a lot of honey on my nice clean paws!
Sing Ho! for a Bear!
Sing Ho! for a Pooh!
And I'll have a little something in an hour or two!

how do nice clean paws and honey on said paws go together? If the paws
have honey on them, how can they be clean?
New nose? what happened to the old one?

It really is a great book. I'd forgotten how much I like 'children's' books.

Actually, one of the best children's books is _Harold and the Purple Crayon_
Really good book! Kami, if it can wait until the term is over- no prob.
Until then- prob. Course, that's only like two weeks. AAGH!!

Roald Dahl does a wonderful grim Fairy Tales, too! (That's grim, *not
Grimm's!)

"when you wake up in the morning, Pooh,"said Piglet at last,
"what's the first thing you say to yourself?"
"What's for breakfast?" siad Pooh. "What do you say, Piglet?"
"I say, I wonder what's going to happen exciting today?" said Piglet.
Pooh nodded thoughtfully. "It's the same thing," he said.
"What's that?" The Unbeliever asked.
"Wisdom from a Western Taoist," I said.
"It sounds like something from Winne-the-Pooh," he said.
"It is," I said.
"That's not about Taoism," he said.
"Oh, yes it is," I said.
"No it's not," he said.
"what do you think it's about?" I said.
"It's about this dumpy little bear that wanders around asking silly questions,
making up songs, and going through all kinds of adventures, without
ever accumulating any amount of intellectual knowledge or losing his
simpleminded sort of happiness. that's what it's about," he siad." Same
thing," I said.
---just a little sample of the wonderful book "The Tao of Pooh"
by Benjamin Hoff, a great companion to the Pooh books for grownups
rediscovering them.
