Winnie the Pooh has a certain Way about him, a way of doing things which has made him the world's most beloved bear. And Pooh's Way, as Benjamin Hoff brilliantly demonstrates, seems strangely close to the ancient principles of Taoist philosophy. As for the hesitant Piglet, he exhibits a very important principle of Taoism - the Te - a Chinese word meing Virtue - of the Small.
from front leaf.
The author uses Pooh and Piglet, and various other characters, to explain Taoism and Te, in a very entertaining but thought-provoking way, with occasional interjections from the Bear himself.
