Description: Here is the Pooh-perfect get-well present for the child in bed with a cold or virus. Guaranteed to please the fussiest little patient, the book has three sections. One is devoted to Teazles--puzzles, poems, and other fun with words. Another is filled with Strengthening Things to Drink and Eat. And the final one, Pleazles, offers fascinating things to make and play while getting well. They're all embellished with many quotes and drawings from the four Pooh books. Featured, of course, is the famous poem from Now We Are six when, as you recall, "Christopher Robin had wheezles and sneezles/ They bundled him into his bed./ They gave him what goes with a cold in the nose/ And some more for a cold in the head." With the entertaining help of The Pooh Get-Well Book any small patient will, like Christopher, be up and out again in no time at all.
