Rabbit
'Rabbit's clever,' said Pooh thoughtfully.
'Yes,' said Piglet. 'Rabbit's clever.'
'And he has Brain.'
'Yes,' said Piglet, 'Rabbit has Brain.'
There was a long silence.
'I suppose,' said Pooh, 'that that's why he never understands anything.'

Hallo rabbit,' said Pooh, 'is that you?'
'Let's pretend it isn't,' said Rabbit, 'and see what happens.'
'Quite so,' said Rabbit,' looking important.
Rabbit wondered what he would do. Kanga's house was nearest, and at kanga's house was Roo, who said, 'Yes, Rabbit' and 'No, Rabbit' almost better than anybody else in the forest; but there was another animal there nowadays, the strange and bouncy Tigger; and he was the sort of Tigger who was always in front when you were showing him the way anywhere, and was generally out of sight when at last you came to the place and said proudly, 'Here we are!'
