No childhood is complete without a little magic and Pooh Wishes delightfully delivers it. In The Wishing Bear, the centerpiece of a trio of tales, Pooh learns to wish upon a star, but then struggles to recall the offbeat rhyme. His journey to remember, coupled with his driving need to make sure his friend's wishes come true, is heartachingly sweet. Friendship is also the underlying theme in two other adventures. In Goodbye Mr. Pooh, a surprise party makes the bear think his friends want him to move away, while Balloonatics uses a balloon--another staple of childhood--to show that friends stick together no matter what. It all adds up to three rewarding fables of friendship in three-quarters of an hour. --Valerie J. Nelson

Product Description
Everyone's best friend, Pooh, invites you to share in the lessons of these heartwarming tales that express the value of friendship. In "The Wishing Bear," Pooh tries to make everyone's wishes come true, but discovers that their only wish -- to be his friend -- has already come true! To protect his friends' feelings, Pooh turns a sad farewell into many happy returns in "Good-Bye, Mr. Pooh!" And everyone's "Balloonatics" when somebody breaks Christopher Robin's balloon and they all share the blame!

5.0 out of 5 stars Pooh and the Gang at their best!, September 10, 2001

By	Amy Cortney "evansmom27" (Marlton, New Jersey United States) - See all my reviews

The first story in this collection of three short stories is, without a doubt, the most charming of the three. It keeps my 2 year old's interest from the very start. The second story, Goodbye Mr. Pooh, is a sweet tale about a misunderstanding between friends. The odd-couple take on Piglet and Pooh is a must-see for any Pooh fan. The third story, Balloonatics, is a great story teaching children that it is always better to tell the truth. There is one scene in which Pooh is dreaming that he is on trial for popping Christpher Robin's balloon. My son doesn't like that scene because it shows Pooh in a cage, after he is found guilty. Other than that, he loves this tape and truthfully, SO DO I! A must-have for any Pooh collection!

5.0 out of 5 stars Pooh Wishes, July 15, 2000

By	Larry Grant (North Aurora, IL) - See all my reviews

What's there to say but it is a fine movie that generates friendship among the Pooh clan. We have a two-year old that runs around the house chanting "Pooh Wishes, Pooh Wishes." What better review could a movie get? Great animation and storyline that brings out the endearing quality of Pooh helping his friends wishes come true. "Pooh Wishes" is definitely a "must" for two-year-olds everywhere!
