The story begins when Christopher Robin “who knew a great deal about far away places like the other side of the Forest and London” announces the exciting news of the Queen’s upcoming birthday. They decide they must bring her a special gift.

“Behind The Queen ran a little boy. He was much younger than Christopher Robin and almost as bouncy as Tigger. He caught sight of Piglet and the balloon and he jumped up and down in delight. The little boy patted Piglet fondly and tickled Winnie-the-Pooh’s ears. Piglet handed him the beautiful balloon and he giggled and skipped away with it.”
