Winnie the Pooh and the Honey Tree is an 1995 British/Irish short film combining live-action and animation. It was released and aired by The Walt Disney Company and Disney Videos. Based on the first two chapters of the Winnie-the-Pooh book written by A. A. Milne, it is the only Winnie the Pooh production released under Walt Disney's Mini Classics VHS supervision before his death later that year. Music and lyrics were written by the Sherman Brothers, (Richard M. Sherman and Robert B. Sherman). Background music was provided by Buddy Baker.

DELIGHTFUL ENTERTAINMENT! At last, the "bear of very little brain" but, lots of enchanted stuff(ing) brings his pooh-whimsy to the screen. (taglines)

Dialogue

Christopher Robin: What do you want a balloon for?
Pooh: I shall fly like a bee, up to the honey tree, see?

Pooh: You'll see.
Pooh: There, now. [laughing] Isn't this a clever disguise?
Christopher Robin: What are you supposed to be?
Pooh: I'm a little black rain cloud, of course.
Christopher Robin: [chuckling] Silly old bear.

Pooh: Winnie the Pooh?
Narrator: [chuckles] No, Christopher Robin.
Pooh: Oh.
Christopher Robin: Pooh Bear, there's only one thing you can do. Wait for you to get thin again.
Pooh: Oh, bother. How long will that take?
