Now We Are Six ‧ 1927
Christopher Robin goes hopity hopity,Hopity hopity hop. When ever I tell him politely to stop it, He says he can't possibly stop. For if he stopped hopping, he couldn't go anywhere. Poor little Christopher couldn't go anywhere, And so he just keeps hoppity hoppity, Hoppity hoppity hop.
Behind the line
What it means
Our interpretation.
Christopher Robin insists that hopping is how he gets anywhere and therefore cannot stop. The repeated hopping gives the verse playful movement without proving a rule about travel. Readable spelling stays unchanged.
