Winnie the Pooh stories always have awesome themes and lessons that are great for a classroom setting. Themes like teamwork, friendship, and persistence are portrayed in this story.

Several of these books have the same basic story but written differently.

Tigger (and Rabbit) learn important lessons...it is far better to talk to each other instead of trying to trick each into changing. Timeless lessons presented in a simple way.

In this book Winnie the Pooh was walking to go see Piglet, and Tigger came bouncing by. Tigger was going to Rabbit's house. And Tigger bounced on Pooh. I liked this book because Pooh and Piglet and Rabbit were hiding in a log after they left Tigger in the woods. Then Tigger came on top of the log. It was not scary. Tigger got stuck on a tree and Tigger came down and Rabbit said no more bouncing. And Tigger said he was not going to bounce anymore and Rabbit was not being nice. -by Felicity

”’Why are you always so bouncy?’ he cried.
‘Bouncing is what I do best.’ Tigger said.”
Tigger loves to bounce. He loves it more than anything in the world. Tigger also loves his friends more than anything in the world. And since he loves both those things equally, it results in some very enthusiastic greetings, much to the dismay of Rabbit, who wishes Tigger would stop his bouncing, trouncing, flouncing, pouncing ways. But when Rabbit’s wish unexpectedly comes true and Tigger can’t bound anymore, he realizes that maybe the bouncing that he finds most annoying is the thing that makes Tigger unique and special.
This book is actually not an original Winnie the Pooh story by A.A. Milne. It’s a book based on the Disney short of the same name that’s now included in The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh. It’s a compilation that I watched repeatedly as a kid and even as adult, considering anything Winnie the Pooh related gives me comfort. And yet don’t be fooled by the fact that this is a children’s book or Disney related marketing tool. It actually teaches a very important lesson along the way.
We’ve all done it. A family member, friend, partner, or loved one has an annoying habit that we all would like for them to stop. It could be something minor like humming to themselves all the time or telling bad jokes. Kids go through this phase all the time with their parents. Why? Because a lot of kids find their parents and their habits embarrassing. Why don’t they stop? I know this has happened to me with regards to my husband and my mom with my dad.
And yet when the habit does stop, a funny thing happens. We find we miss it. We find we want it back. The trait that we might find annoying or eyeball roll inducing was actually the thing that made the person special and unique in their own way. It’s what made them happy and what made them shine. Sure, it can feel old sometimes, but without these unique traits, life is less interesting and duller.
Besides the lessons learned along the way, this book was a cute read. I mean, how can you possibly go wrong with Winnie the Pooh, both the classic and the Disney version? We’ve all grown up with the franchise, myself included. This book was very nostalgic and comforting for me, even as a 31-year-old adult. I personally would like to live in the 100 Acre Wood and have my own little cozy cottage nestled in the trees and fields that make up Winnie the Pooh, Piglet, Tigger, Rabbit, and all the other characters’ home. Pooh Bear and friends are living the cottagecore lifestyle and I love it.
The artwork in this book was very colorful, with the characters being easily recognizable as the Disney version of Winnie the Pooh. It was equally as adorable as the story, although some of the pictures looked a little wonky (not to mention the conflicting color of Rabbit’s fur. Is he yellow or is he gray? Who knows!)
Two surprising things happened while reading this book that I did not expect to happen at all for me. Number one, I did not expect this book to be as funny as it was. I think people underestimate the humor in the Winnie the Pooh franchise as a whole. Winnie the Pooh and all his friends are comedians, full stop. I never underestimated that Winnie the Pooh was funny, but I did forget. I laughed out loud more times in this less than 50-page book than I have while reading some books that are actually marketed as humor. For example, Roo’s simple solution to getting stuck in a tree with Tigger.
Oh. What’s that? I got stuck up a tree? Guess I’m just going to have to stay here forever.
I THINK NOT, YOUNG MAN.
And there’s also Pooh coming in the with the jokes. Although in the process, he told me some hard truths about myself.
Is this a shameless marketing grab by the Walt Disney Company?
Probably.
Did it work on me when I saw it for sale for 50 cents at the thrift store?
You bet.
Did I read this as an adult to help me get out of my reading slump from hell?
Yes, and I’m not ashamed.
While this book won’t win any literary prizes, with it’s charming illustrations and valuable lesson, this is a good read aloud book for parents to read to children, which was actually the goal with this line of books put out by the Walt Disney Company. With its easy reading style, charming illustrations, and charming sense of humor, this book can be enjoyed by both adults and children alike while helping us learn to embrace who we are and celebrating our quirks and traits along the way.

A very cute story! Tigger is my favorite character that's in it.
Read
March 31, 2015This book was definitely one of my favorites growing up because I loved everything Winnie The Pooh! I was so excited to find this book and to read it again. This would be a great read aloud so that the different voices could be used for the different characters that most know. I also enjoyed the use of descriptive words to teach the reader and they are used twice most of the time to practice the word once and to sound it out and then to read it again.

This story is sure to entertain any child and has been a very popular and beloved tale for many children for years. I love how the story is shown through its detailed illustrations because it does have a lot of words for a children's picturebook. However, it introduces many different sentence structures and is great for discussing storytelling within the classroom.

Winnie the Pooh has always been the kids favorite character since i was a kid over ten years ago. In this particular story, Winnie and Tigger go on an adventure to try to find there friend in the woods. With great pictures and vocabulary, the kids will be well entertained.

PB 40: This book is great for showing children that you should accept others for who they are. Rabbit did not like Tigger's bouncing, but when he finally got him to stop bouncing he realized that he likes the bouncy Tigger better. Great lesson with classic characters.

The story begins with Tigger bouncing into Pooh, who is in the Hundred Acre Wood contemplating the day ahead. Pooh, who was on his way to see Piglet, is far from pleased but Tigger moves on undaunted.
And he goes on to bounce into Piglet, who exclaims, Tigger, you sc-sc-sc-scared me!' Tigger was unconcerned and continues on his way to bounce Rabbit who is enjoying a quiet morning in his garden. Tigger bounced right on top of him, a movement that draws the comment from Rabbit, 'Wny don't you ever stop bouncing?'
The three of them decide to come up with a plan to "unbounce" Tigger. but it doesn't go exactly as planned but in the end, after some worrying moments, everything turns out okay.

Meh. Adaptations by "reading" groups are usually boring, poorly done. The attempt to make the books easy ignores any sense of whimsy or fun. Basal readers fail new readers because they underestimate the power of interest and curiosity and underestimate the intelligence and abilities of readers. This is no exception. Julius brought it home from school. When we finish The Little Prince, I'll see if he's interested in the real Winnie the Pooh by A.A. Milne.

This delightfully illustrated book is a great representation of the Tigger introduction sequence from the movie 'The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh' and the font is large enough that most children can read it with ease. For myself it is a good little book to read quietly while unwinding for the day or if you're feeling under the weather.

Focus is on all of the Tigger parts that are seen in the movie. Tiger and his bouncing is a nuisance, mainly for Rabbit. Rabbit makes a plan to scare the bounces out of Tigger, but ends up scared himself. Then Tigger and Roo get stuck in a tree, and Tigger May have to give up his bounces forever. Very true to the movie.

I have loved the Winnie-the-Pooh books since I was a little girl. Each story is different, unique, as well as cute in their own ways. More recently I found out that each of the characters represents a different disorder that people experience in real life. I would use this in the classroom as a fun silent reading book for the kids to read on either their own time, or during silent reading time.

I must say, I did like how Rabbit’s idea came back to bite him. A story of karma at its finest. I do think the book would have been much better to have ended there. The rest of the tale really took away from the lesson.

I love Tigger, and this is a nice book about how Tigger helps Rabbit after Rabbit gets lost in the woods, and then how Roo and Tigger bounce to the top of a tall tree but then Tigger gets stuck. Very colorful pages following the Disney movie.

Winnie the Pooh is timeless. And I'm always up for a visit to the hundred acre wood. This time, tigger is annoying everyone with all his bounces. But then everyone realizes how sad he is when he promises to give them up, and that he isn't...well, TIGGER, without them.
November 22, 2023
This was a good story, but I wish Rabbit had actually made it home at the end; the ending felt rather unsatisfying. I also wish there had been a better acknowledgment of how mean it was to purposefully ditch Tigger and that they had given him an apology.
April 28, 2025
I got this at a library sale 2023. This was good but I felt bad for Tigger. His friends planning to leave him in the woods so he won't bounce anymore not cool.
It backfires though and by the end they realize he's going bounce cause that's just how Tigger is. Wish this had Eeyore in it.

My cousin found this book in my grandparents basement and just brought it after sorting through the old boxes. The inscription says I got it for my 2nd birthday. We read it last night and it is still a wonderful book. Love the story and the lesson as well. These are great books.
January 6, 2026
when I read this book lately with my toddler son, the words, and the deeper meaning hit really deep. this book really makes me reflect. I hope my children appreciate the deeper meaning of the Winnie the Pooh books we read together
