Then about two thirds through the book, it just becomes insulting. Those were great books with great characters, each with their own type of intelligence. Pooh as western Taoist starts off interestingly enough but halfway through it I came to the realization that it was making me want to just read the actual Milne, who was frankly probably a genius writer. Milne and juxtaposed them with the Taoist teachings of people such as Lao Tzu. The author took the stories and characters of A.A. I picked up this book because it seemed so charming. I wonder if he was trying to write these stories to illustrate Taoist philosophies, if so, he was more of a genius than I previously thought.Ĭute book, I listened to the audio version and it was well read. What this little book made me want to do is read the Winnie the Pooh books by A. “Stephanie, and thanks Pooh, I would love some.” “I was about to go get some honey, it’s my favorite thing.” Said Pooh “would you like some….uh….what is your name?” But I’m sure it’s more complicated than that.” “You enjoy the day and blow off any important things you really should be doing, and listen to the birds chirp simply because it’s a nice day.” I said “in Taoism procrastination is good, my kind of philosophy. “ I said”something about how you are not very smart, therefore you don’t over think things like Rabbit.” “From what I understand you are an un-carved block.” In fact the whole book was about the author trying to explain it to you, and you would say “oh.” “Taoist” I said, “it’s very hard to explain, I’m no expert. The most recent one is about how you are a western Taoist.” “There have been many books written about you and your friends.
“Hello there! Aren’t you Winnie the Pooh? I’m a big fan.”
