The House at Pooh Corner Metaphors and Similes

The House at Pooh Corner Metaphors and Similes

Hole in the forest (Metaphor)

When all the animals have been organized by Rabbit for the search of a Small, Pooh had his part of the forest to look about. But he was not quite sure who to look for, so decided to look for Piglet and ask him. So he went off and found in the forest a ”piece of ground which has been left out by mistake” and fall into it. That’s how a well is represented metaphorically.

A good sniff (Metaphor)

One morning, Rabbit came out of his house and “sniffed the warm spring morning as he wondered what he would do”. This a rather good sniff brought a thought that it was his busy day, and something important depend upon him. Thus, it is metaphorically represented that good air provokes the brain to think.

Thoughtful Spot (Metaphor)

Between Pooh’s and Piglet’s houses was a place where they used to gather and think what they would do this or that day. They called this place a Thoughtful Spot, because here some very clever thoughts entered their minds.
