Now by this time Rabbit wanted to go for a walk too, and finding the front door full, he went out by the back door, and came round to Pooh, and looked at him.

тАЬHallo, are you stuck?тАЭ he asked.

тАЬN-no,тАЭ said Pooh carelessly. тАЬJust resting and thinking and humming to myself.тАЭ

тАЬHere, give us a paw.тАЭ

Pooh Bear stretched out a paw, and Rabbit pulled and pulled and pulled.тБатАКтБатАж

тАЬ Ow! тАЭ cried Pooh. тАЬYouтАЩre hurting!тАЭ

тАЬThe fact is,тАЭ said Rabbit, тАЬyouтАЩre stuck.тАЭ

тАЬIt all comes,тАЭ said Pooh crossly, тАЬof not having front doors big enough.тАЭ

тАЬIt all comes,тАЭ said Rabbit sternly, тАЬof eating too much. I thought at the time,тАЭ said Rabbit, тАЬonly I didnтАЩt like to say anything,тАЭ said Rabbit, тАЬthat one of us was eating too much,тАЭ said Rabbit, тАЬand I knew it wasnтАЩt me ,тАЭ he said. тАЬWell, well, I shall go and fetch Christopher Robin.тАЭ

Christopher Robin lived at the other end of the Forest, and when he came back with Rabbit, and saw the front half of Pooh, he said, тАЬSilly old Bear,тАЭ in such a loving voice that everybody felt quite hopeful again.

тАЬI was just beginning to think,тАЭ said Bear, sniffing slightly, тАЬthat Rabbit might never be able to use his front door again. And I should hate that,тАЭ he said.

тАЬSo should I,тАЭ said Rabbit.

тАЬUse his front door again?тАЭ said Christopher Robin. тАЬOf course heтАЩll use his front door again.тАЭ

тАЬGood,тАЭ said Rabbit.

тАЬIf we canтАЩt pull you out, Pooh, we might push you back.тАЭ
