The Life of Christopher Robin "But father, I really wanna go to the zoo!" I whined. "No, Christopher Robin, we can't. I'm working today," father evenly stated. He always did that.

Why do we always have to stay at home and do nothing? I hate it, I hate it, I hate --" "Now Christopher Robin, you are making me very angry.…

personality that also reflect a larger view of the archetype: the innocent youth. Milne offers his reader subtle hints of Pooh’s personality when he says, “He could see the honey. He could smell the honey. But he couldn’t reach the honey.” (Milne 14) Milne’s repetition and use of the anaphora is key to understanding Pooh and his charisma. Milne uses the ambiguous pronoun “he” in all three sentences, which serves to show that Milne points to Pooh and his actions, however, does not explicitly…

In chapter 4 Milne wrestles with the very clear understanding to some, and maybe new to others, that God never tries to prove his existence. However, instead looks to explain how we should be reconciled with him and for what purposes. Chapter 5 then begins to help us understand the character of God which naturally begs discussion about the trinity.
