ABOUT THE SHOW

A very special Friend-and-Relation tells Christopher Robin the story of a Christmas Eve very long ago (about last year) when Eeyore, the old gray donkey who lives by himself in the thistle corner of Hundred-Acre Wood, was absolutely miserable. It seems that he had lost his tail, and Winnie-the-Pooh and Piglet organize a search! Fun, excitement, and delightful songs illustrate themes of caring, sharing, and the importance of cultivating friends.
