Description
The Te of Piglet explores the concept of Virtue through the character and actions of Piglet from A.A. Milne's stories. This book reveals how Taoist wisdom can be found in unexpected places, using the lovable but anxious Piglet as its guide.
Benjamin Hoff examines the principle of The Te - a Chinese word meaning Virtue of the Small - and shows how it applies to everyday life. By looking at Piglet's relationships with other characters, such as Tigger, Eeyore, Owl, and Pooh, Hoff demonstrates that even small actions can have a profound impact.
This book offers a unique perspective on Taoist philosophy, using the beloved characters from A.A. Milne's stories to illustrate its principles. It is an interesting read for those looking to explore the teachings of Taoism in a new and accessible way.
