Winnie-the-Pooh Chapter 6 One day Winnie-the-Pooh runs into Eeyore the old grey donkey who is very sad because it’s his birthday and nobody has taken any notice or brought him a present.
Winnie-the-Pooh goes off to find Eeyore something as a birthday present and meets Piglet along the way. Pooh decides to give Eeyore a pot of his honey and Piglet chooses a red balloon that he has at home.
Unfortunately, Pooh absent-mindedly eats the honey on the way to Eeyore and Piglet falls and bursts his balloon. Winnie-the-Pooh gets Owl to write a birthday greeting on the pot and Piglet explains the accident with the balloon to Eeyore.
Instead of being upset, Eeyore is delighted with both presents and spends the rest of the day putting the burst balloon in and out of the birthday honey pot from Winnie-the-Pooh.
