Listen to the text Christopher's Toys and do the tasks in your student's book.0:12
When Christopher Milne grew up, he often had to answer questions about himself when he was a child and about his toys.0:24
He remembered that Pooh was his parents present and the oldest, only a year younger than Christopher himself and the most cheerful of them.0:34
He was Christopher's favourite toy and companion.0:45
It was Pooh to whom the little boy said good night before falling asleep.0:49
Eeyore Poo was a present.0:56
With time, his neck had gone down and this had given him his sad and gloomy look.1:00
Piglet was a present from a neighbour who lived close by.1:09
At first he was just the owner of the hole in which Pooh got stuck and struggled to get free.1:17
Every child remembers how once Pooh was walking through the forest humming to himself.1:24
TRA la la TRA la la TRA la la TRA la la Rum tum tiddle um Tum tiddle idle tiddle iddle tiddle idle tiddle diddle rum tum tum tiddle um when he saw a hole, found out that Rabbit was1:31
in and pushed his way through the hole.1:51
The two had a bite, after which Pooh couldn't climb out of the hole, though he pulled with his front paws and pushed with his back paws as hard as he could.1:55
For a long week, Pooh had to stay in the hole and have no meals, not a bowl of honey, not even a mouthful of condensed milk, and only when he got thinner.2:06
Christopher Robin, Rabbit and Rabbit's friends and relations, pulled Pooh out of the tight place.2:19
Both Kanga and Tigger arrived later.2:27
They were presents from Christopher's parents, carefully chosen so that they could make new literary characters.2:31
As AA Milne said, you only had to look at them to see at once that Tigger was bouncy, Eeyore was gloomy and Piglet was squeaky.2:39
Pooh's house was inside an old walnut tree.2:53
The tree was hollow inside and it was easy to climb in through a big opening in the trunk.2:57
It was the perfect tree house for a five year old.3:04
This was where Christopher and Pooh played their quiet, happy games together.3:08
