I've read it, years ago....hmmm, can't remeber much about it, there was a sequel though, the te of piglet I think, never read that one.

I remember that book! Rather liked it.
The one bit I always remember is the men sitting around talking about vinegar. :)

I've heard of it, never actually read it, though.

I've always heard of it, but haven't read it. Since you're almost finished with it, perhaps you can share your thoughts about it? I'd love to learn more about the premise of the book.

well it goes through some stuff about the basics about stuff like
fish can't whistle and nither can i
give me a riddle and i'll reply
cottlston cottleston cottleston pie
which shows you your limitations
and p'u the uncarved block which the book was kind named after pooh (same sound)
uncarved block being like pooh and the rabbit and owl being to smart ect sorry i am not to good at explination
but whatever you should read the book no matter what you know or think of tao (which i think is said dao)

I just read The Tao of Pooh and The Te of Piglet last year. I thought they
were a pretty good introduction to Taoist ideas.
