## Synopsis

Pooh, Piglet, Tigger, Eeyore, Roo, McGee, Gretchen, Squirt, Dora, Boots, Wubbzy, Daizy, Widget and Walden are all excited to celebrate Easter in the Hundred Acre Wood, but Rabbit and McGee's stuck-up sister, Suzi, have both replaced it with Spring Cleaning Day, which means no Easter honey pot for Pooh, no Easter basket for Piglet, no Stripey Egg for Tigger, no bunny ears for Daizy and Eeyore, no Easter Egg Hunt for Roo, and no fun for anyone.

Can Roo and McGee make Rabbit and Suzi change their minds about Easter, or will it be curtains for Easter forever?

Find out in this Springtime version of 'A Christmas Carol' for everyone to enjoy.

## Plot

Overexcited, Dora, Boots, Wubbzy, Daizy, Widget, Walden, Roo, Pooh, Piglet, Tigger, Eeyore and the Bottom Dwellers pay Rabbit and Suzi a visit to celebrate Easter. But instead of finding an Easter party, they find a Spring Cleaning Day celebration led by Suzi and Rabbit, who make up the holiday to replace Easter. While the gang clean up Rabbit’s house, Roo finds all their Easter eggs and decorations stored away in Rabbit’s closet and throws a surprise Easter party for Rabbit for Suzi. Unfortunately, they're clearly annoyed and enraged at them for not doing their “Spring Cleaning Day” and send them out. Roo is sad that Rabbit is unhappy, and Tigger wants Roo to have a happy Easter, so Tigger and McGee try to talk to Suzi and Rabbit while Roo, Dora and the others try to make an Easter celebration of their own in their hopes of cheering up Rabbit and Suzi.

To convince Rabbit and Suzi that they still miss Easter and how they used to like it, Suzi and Rabbit don't believe from hating it so much that Tigger, McGee and the Narrator take them out of the storybook and back in time to last year’s Easter celebration. Like the Easter Bunny, Rabbit and Suzi tried to make everything as organized, orderly, and perfect as possible, treating Easter like a business rather than a great holiday. Tigger and the others wanted to have fun and unique with making and hunting the eggs, but Rabbit and Suzi was actually shown to be very over-protective on his views of the holiday, claiming, “It isn’t fun, it’s Easter!” So Tigger and the others swiped all the Easter eggs behind Rabbit’s back, and he found them hunting the eggs and celebrating Easter without him. Everyone is happier with Tigger being the “Easter Bunny” instead of Rabbit. Feeling left out of the fun and disappointed that he isn’t getting this kind of honor from his friends, Rabbit and Suzi decided to stop the Hundred Acre Wood from having another Easter celebration again, believing that if they couldn’t enjoy Easter, no one could. Rabbit finds out Tigger was right about him liking Easter in his past, but instead of agreeing to allow the holiday back, Rabbit then sadly tells Tigger he wants to be left alone, still upset and bitter about his past and accusing Tigger of stealing his role as the Easter Bunny.

Sadly, the present Tigger and McGee return to tell Roo, Dora, Boots and the others that Easter is still banned while Rabbit and Suzi return home in the book. Although Tigger and McGee feels that he had let Roo, Dora and Boots down, the only thing they want is for Rabbit and Suzi to be happy again, so he and the others try to come up with a plan to do so. Meanwhile, the narrator purposely takes Suzi and Rabbit to Roo’s house instead of Rabbit's to show them how much Roo, McGee and the others still care about them and how they should do the same thing, but Rabbit remains unconvinced, heads home, and puts all the Easter supplies in a chest, frustrating the narrator. So late that night, the narrator takes Rabbit into the “pages that not have yet been written” or into the future of the Hundred Acre Wood. It is Spring Cleaning Day, and all the supplies and chores are organized exactly as Rabbit wanted. Rabbit and Suzi are happy about this at first, but they later learn that the Hundred Acre Wood is deserted. All their friends had moved away because of their selfishness and bossy attitudes. Rabbit and Suzi wonder why their friends would leave them, and the narrator tells them it’s because they didn’t treat them as friends and shows them how they acted throughout the movie before telling him that all they thought about was what they wanted. Rabbit and Suzi finally realize that they were jerks to his friends, and they were wrong to try to control and take away something that everyone shares and loves and decides to change the future by changing their attitudes to everyone else. But however, he learns that the Easter supplies were taken with his friends when they moved, and he screams in terror or fear until he wakes up on Easter Sunday, finding out he still has a chance to change the future.

At the same time, Roo and the others come up with another idea in hopes of cheering Rabbit up, and while they are busy working, Rabbit, feeling as “giddy as a jackrabbit”, brings out all the Easter decorations and starts happily preparing a big surprise for his friends. He apologizes to his friends for his behavior and gives everyone their Easter supplies. Roo hands Rabbit his repaired old Easter Bunny hat, to which Rabbit is touched, and allows Tigger to lead the hunt. The movie ends with the annual Easter celebration proceeding as planned..
