An orange creature is put in a position of authority after using demagoguery to whip up fear in the populace against those bad hombres, the jagulars. He backs up the big lie by running a false flag operation. A coup is orchestrated through a deep state operation run by a bitter, long-eared rival.

Tigger's staggering narcissism makes the heel turn quite believable. For another Tigger attempt at tyranny, be sure to check out Disney's My Very First Winnie The Pooh: Tigger Takes Over. These two prophetic books are surely more kindling to stoke the fire of rancor toward Disney burning in hearts of American conservatives today.

This is an adaptation of The New Adventures of Winnie the Pooh animated cartoon segment "King of the Beasties" (season 1, episode 17, originally aired Jan. 7, 1989, show credits: story by Mark Zaslove; written by Carter Crocker; directed by Karl Geurs, David Block, Terence Harrison, and Bob Zamboni.) After reading the book, I took the opportunity to rewatch the segment on Disney+. The adaptation has expunged Christopher Robin and some meta gags that start the show and played around with the order of events, but it is pretty faithful otherwise.

(My Pooh Project: I love Winnie the Pooh, and so does my wife. Having a daughter gave us a chance to indoctrinate her into the cult by buying and reading her every Pooh book we came across. How many is that? I’m going to count them this year by reading and reviewing one every day and seeing which month I finally run out. Track my progress here:

My grandaughter relly enjoyed this book. She is 21 months and knows Eyore and Pooh. She enjoyed pointing them out.

A very short, not very good snippet of a story. But it's Pooh Bear and O has a special place in her heart and likes to read this one.
