Great book. Definitely espouses Dudeist principles. And speaking of Pooh - definitely a Dudeist. But I'll go into that more in the forum for suggesting Dudeists. Eventually.

Great book.   Great book.
Abide!

The first draft? Or the compromised second draft?

I've just finished reading both the Tao of Pooh and the Te of Piglet. I've found both quite good but I'd have liked them more if they had a kind of summary at the end, since sometimes they're a little "messy".

Anyway they are part of my trilogy on Taoism with Tao Te King and Lao Tzu writings.
Yeah well, that's just, ya know, like, your opinion, man.

Te of Piglet was by far my favorite because of its unique method of teaching. Many complained that Benjamin Hoff used the book as a soap box to rant on his personal "Taoist" opinions of society and others. But the author himself was the lesson in Te, as Piglet's closing defense of Eeyore and calling of the book's own author to task prove. Simply brilliant.

I have lost so many copies of this book lending it to people.

As i said elsewhere:

Problem with the Tao of Pooh is anyone I lend it to instantly becomes a Poohist rather than a taoist.
