Generosity and Forgiveness

In the first of the two stories in this book, "The Trouble with Tiggers," Tigger from "Winnie the Pooh and Tigger, Too," is trapped in a predicament. In his eagerness to get down from the high tree branch he is on, Tigger promises that he will never bounce again if only he can safely get down. Hearing this, Rabbit holds Tigger to his word and insists to everyone that Tigger is to always be held accountable to his promise. However, Tigger is no longer happy and his friends also are saddened by Tigger's prohibition of bouncing. Eventually, Rabbit admits that Tigger isn't the same and that although bouncing is annoying, he wants to have his friend be happy. Of course, Tigger then bounces and knocks Rabbit down, but invites Rabbit to bounce with him. The second little story in the book is from "Beauty and the Beast." Belle, having been locked away at the Beast's castle, is welcomed by Lumiere the candlestick and all the enchanted items in the kitchen. In making their greatest efforts to make Belle feel welcome and happy, a great meal is made for her. In the end, the hosts all modestly insist that their efforts were "nothing," Both of these stories show forgiveness and generosity are elemental to friendship. Kids will love the bright and cheerful illustrations from the Disney films.
