Summary
Winnie-the-Pooh has a certain Way about him, a way of doing things that has made him the world's most beloved bear. In The Tao of Pooh, Benjamin Hoff shows that Pooh's Way is amazingly consistent with the principles of living envisioned by the Chinese founders of Taoism. The author's explanation of Taoism through Pooh, and Pooh through Taoism, shows that this is not simply an ancient and remote philosophy but something you can use, here and now.And what is Taoism? It's really very simple. It calls for living without preconceived ideas about how life should be lived-but it's not a preconception of how life-it's.... Well, you'd do better to listen to this book, and listen to Pooh, if you really want to find out.

Very well written and read. A beautiful way of explaining Tao using pooh and vice versa. Love this one

This is a great overview of basic Daoist principles that in many ways feels like a reimagining of classic daoist texts. The narrator, Simon Vance, brings life to the characters and makes for an entertaining listen. We really didn’t expect to listen to the whole thing today, but suddenly we found ourselves at the end!

This book isn't about Daoism, it's about Daoism from the perspective of an entitled and priveledged person. The author has a 'holier than thou' attitude and the book comes off as patronizing towards those that don't understand or practice Daoism. Also Pooh's character is inconsistent...

So lovely. Made me understand the Tao in a practical way, and feel the glee of childhood at the same time. The narrator was so well suited and enjoyable to listen to. I ended the book feeling like I was on a cloud.

Original in its approche. It made me laugh at times and be inspired some other times. I will never see Winnie the Pooh the same way!
