6. THE MAP

7. THE MAP
At the beginning of the book, the map sets the reader in an Edenic space: no large human constructions, harmony with nature
The map is typical of adventure books: e.g. Treasure Island
A kind of reference for the child reader

8. his friends Piglet, a small toy pig Eeyore, a toy donkey
Owl, a live owl
Rabbit, a live rabbit
Kanga, a toy kangaroo
Roo, her son
Tigger, the bouncy toy-tiger

9. Winnie-the-Pooh
The chapters in the book can be read independently of each other, as they are episodic in nature and plots 

10. ANALYSIS
All of the animals in the Pooh stories are different  because they have different personalities
It seems that Milne repeats this motif because he wants to inform children that everyone is different.  All people should be accepted for who they are, even if they think others are different
The most important moral at the end of the novel:  every child will grow up.  

11. Christopher Robin
 Christopher Robin, the only non-animal character in the novel, leaves the fantasy-imaginary-like Hundred Acre Wood for school, which represents “reality.”
  Christopher Robin, a human child, leaves behind the animals, which are symbolic of his toys, representing his leave of childhood
He represents the child who grows up and moves on, unlike his animal friends who cannot change or grow up; they are static characters, as the toys are inanimate objects.  

12. MORAL
Young readers are taught that everyone has to grow out of their childlike ways 
He also presents some positivity.  Milne gives the children hope that Christopher Robin and Pooh will be reunited and that their friendship will remain intact.
They promise each other that they will not forget one another and that they will visit each other 

13. MORAL
 For the adult audience, Milne reminds us that there is still a child within each one of us with the last quote of the novel: “But wherever they go, and whatever happens to them on the way, in that enchanted place on top of the Forest, a little boy and his Bear will always be playing” (Milne 362).  Milne reminds the adult audiences that no matter what happens or how old we get, we are still young at heart.
