Notable Differences
Welcome to Pooh Corner differs from its other incarnations in a number of ways:
- Piglet always has on a scarf (or a muffler, as the narrator calls it). He also has a talent for music.
- Tigger has a black nose, and has a talent for art.
- Rabbit is a talented magician, aside from being a gardener.
- Eeyore has a talent for dancing. His house is made of wooden planks, complete with a door and weather vane.
- Owl always has on glasses, and on several occasions, has on a pilot's cap and scarf when flying. As Owl begins to take off, a sound of a plane's engine starting can be heard, followed by the take off. He also loves to cook.
- Roo's character originally was a toddler and would most often be sitting on something like Eeyore or Tigger's back, Kanga's pouch, or his high chair. In later episodes, his character was portrayed as being more preschool-aged; he was then able to walk around in more scenes and was never in his mother's pouch. He also always wore a red shirt, but later a white collared shirt. (One Disney book from 1986 actually depicted Roo wearing a red shirt.)

Famous quotes containing the words notable and/or differences:
“a notable prince that was called King John;
And he ruled England with main and with might,
For he did great wrong, and maintained little right.”
—Unknown. King John and the Abbot of Canterbury (l. 2–4)
“I don’t know what immutable differences exist between men and women apart from differences in their genitals; perhaps there are some other unchangeable differences; probably there are a number of irrelevant differences. But it is clear that until social expectations for men and women are equal, until we provide equal respect for both men and women, our answers to this question will simply reflect our prejudices.”
—Naomi Weisstein (b. 1939)
