Description

β€œWhat’s this you’re writing?… asked Pooh, climbing onto the writing table. β€œThe Tao of Pooh,… I replied. β€œThe how of Pooh?… asked Pooh, smudging one of the words I had just written. β€œThe Tao of Pooh,… I replied, poking his paw away with my pencil. β€œIt seems more like ow! of Pooh,… said Pooh, rubbing his paw. β€œWell, it’s not,… I replied huffily. β€œWhat’s it about?… asked Pooh, leaning forward and smearing another word. β€œIt’s about how to stay happy and calm under all circumstances!… I yelled. β€œHave you read it?… asked Pooh…

…Winnie-the-Pooh has a certain way about him, a way of doing things that has made him the world's most beloved bear, and Pooh's Way, as Benjamin Hoff brilliantly demonstrates, seems strangely close to the ancient Chinese principles of Taoism.

Follow the Pooh Way in this humorous and enlightening introduction to Taoism, with classic decorations by E.H.Shepard throughout. Over a million copies sold to date.
