--------------- Yiyo celebrated her birthday and got two presents(4) --------------- "Oh! no, yo," said Pooh, "the balloon's too big to fit in, and balloons aren't made to go in jars, but you're supposed to hold the string with your hands—" "It's okay," said Yiyo proudly, "Look, Piglet!" Piglet looked up at Yiyo sadly.Yiyo picked up the balloon with his teeth and carefully put it in the jar, then he took the balloon out of the jar and carefully put it on the ground.Then he picked up the balloon again and put it carefully back in the jar.

"It really is!" said Pooh. "It really fits in!" "It really is!" said Piglet. "It really works!" "Isn't it?" said Yiyo. "It can be put in and taken out like anything else." "I'm so glad," said Pooh cheerfully, "that I thought of giving you a useful jar to hold things in." "I'm glad, too," said Piglet cheerfully, "that I thought of giving you something that would go in a useful jar." But Yiyo didn't listen to what they had to say, he just took that balloon out and put it back in again... Never could have been happier...

"Did I get him a present?" Christopher Robin asked me sadly. "Of course you did," I said. "You gave him—don't you remember—a little—a little—" "I gave him a box of paints that he can use to paint." "Yes, that box of paint." "Why didn't I bring him a present that morning?" "You're too busy because you're getting him a party where he eats a piece of cake with icing on it, three candles are lit, and his name is written in pink buttercream, and— —” "Yes, I remember," said Christopher Robin.
