In Lights Out: Rabbit is mad at Pooh borrowing things without returning them. Then he borrows Gopher's light helmet without asking in order to plant carrots midnight so they will grow into midnight snacks. He was so tired when he finished that he forgot to return the helmet to Gopher and accidentally misplaces it and then cannot find it when he awakens. Pooh thinks he must have taken the helmet and then forgotten about it. Everyone ends up in Gopher's DARK tunnels, with each one learning a lesson about friendship. Rabbit learns to be more honest about his own behavior.

The Rats Who Came to Dinner: once again involves the packrats who take things and leave walnuts to pay for what they take. There is a great rainstorm and flood in which everything is flooding. Pooh feels sorry for the poor flooded out packrats. He teaches them about what friends do and don't do about other people things. But the rest of the neighborhood thinks the packrats took all their furniture and stuff, but all learn a lesson about judging without the facts, when everyone ends up in Owl's house due to the flood and the missing things appear in a closet.

No Rabbit's A Fortress: Rabbit finally has had it with everyone borrowing things and not respecting is garden. He build a fortress around his garden to keep everyone out and tells them to go away. He then finds he forgot to build a door in the fortress. He has to lurer Pooh and the others to come back and help him get out of the fortress. All to no avail and they have to use TNT to blast him out. Rabbit finds out in the end that your friends are more important sometimes than gardens.

I know this is long, but I have had to buy so many tapes that duplicated some of the stories and vowed I would write about each VHS to help others in their buying.

Another good edition to the Winnie-The-Pooh collection. The first segment "Sharing" is the best part of this two-part video. "Borrowing" from each other gets out of hand, but persistance, patience, and plain luck bring a happy ending for all. The second segment "Caring" lacks the typical happy mood, but there is plenty of slap-stick comedy to bring occasional smiles to your child's face.
