Title: The Tao of Pooh by Benjamin Hoff

I have seen this book at the bookstore but I just thought it was a children's fictional book. Is it in reality about Taoism?

Yes!  It gives the basics of Taoism in a very easy to read format.

Basically, Winnie the Pooh is the classic Taoist. It is helpful if you already know the Winnie the Pooh books.

It's a great book for a youngster, or someone who is rather childlike at heart and doesn't understand big and clever words (me) [:)]

If you already know about taoism, it might be a bit basic.

Thank you. It sounds interesting. I will have to check it out. It should make for a good book for my daughter when she gets older too.

I've just finished reading this wonderful little book.

If anyone read Winnie the Pooh as a child and wants to learn a little about Taoism (in simple and understandable English), this is definitely the book to read.

A real gem.
