The Tao of Pooh is an enlightening book by Benjamin Hoff that uses the beloved characters of A.A. Milne's Winnie-the-Pooh stories to explain the basic principles of Taoism. Hoff explains the Taoist principles of naturalness, effortless action (wu-wei), flexibility, living in harmony with nature, and the three "treasures" of compassion, moderation, and humility. He then draws connections between these ideas and the behavior of characters from the Pooh stories, such as Eeyore, Tigger, and even Pooh himself. Throughout the book, Hoff uses humor and simple language to explain complex concepts. The Tao of Pooh is a timeless classic, delighting readers of all ages for more than 30 years.
