Front cover: Friendorama, a “periodic table” friends. In analogy with Dimitri
Mendeleev’s Periodic Table of molecules, empty boxes predict the appearance
of new friends. The Friendorama is made by Vesselka Nikolova and Kiril Todorov.

This book is dedicated with respect and love to my
parents, teachers and friends, including my family.

Piglet sidled up to Pooh from behind.
– Pooh? – he whispered.
– Yes, Piglet?
– Nothing – said Piglet, taking Pooh’s hand.
I just wanted to be sure of you.
Alan Milne, Winnie-the-Pooh
