About This Quote

When Eeyore was feeling gloomy, he asked someone about what would happen when he has been inside the river for a long time. Everyone who became wet after being in the river will feel the same, because the water contains all of us. The same thing happened to all of us before. "Oh Eeyore! You are wet" is a well-known nursery rhyme that has been used to encourage children to be brave.

The story behind this rhyme is that Eeyore's tail got stuck in his house, and he went looking for help to rescue him. Piglet saved Eeyore from drowning by giving him a piggyback ride.
