This story introduces the energetic character Tigger to the Hundred Acre Wood when he unexpectedly arrives at Pooh's house in the middle of the night. Despite Tigger's cheerful insistence that "Tiggers like everything," Pooh and his friends embark on a quest to find him breakfast, only to discover through humorous trial-and-error that Tigger dislikes honey, haycorns, and thistles. The narrative highlights themes of welcoming newcomers, patience in discovering individual preferences (even unexpected ones), and community support, culminating when Tigger accidentally tastes Roo's strengthening medicine (Extract of Malt) at Kanga's house and finally discovers the food he truly loves, finding both sustenance and a place to belong.
