    <body><![CDATA[(Closer to 2.5 stars) Rather disappointing follow up to Tao of Pooh.  The author spent too many pages ranting on his personal agenda and beliefs.  Once the author seemed to free himself of his own rants, he finally addresses the issue of virtue via Piglet in the last few chapters.  Loved the last ch...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/56757802">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[The first time I read this book it completely captivated me.  I hung on each word and forced myself to read it a chapter at a time so that I could really absorb the meaning.  Obviously I was too young to really grasp the meaning because I re-read it and while 2/3 of it is still fantastic with great ...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/269045">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[   The Te of piglet can be cute, but preachy, although some of my favorite parts where cute, my very favorites where preachy. <br/>   The narration isn't very smooth. The author will go on a rant about some ailment of society, and then he will be talking to Pooh, or Piglet and the book overall, has...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/41793464">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[It's very rare that you can find someone who breaks down the concepts of Taoism into easily comprehensible structures, but that's exactly what Ben Hoff has done. Set against the back drop of the classic and lovable Winnie the Pooh characters, it draws parallels between the simplistic behavior of the...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/55660847">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[I remember it being good, but it was not as good as Tao of Pooh. Perhaps Teism is not for me, perhaps Piglet is not my favorite character,...who knows. It was good - it just wasn't great. Read it before Tao of Pooh or do not try to compare it. All that noted, if you are small and feeling small, read...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/44137950">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[I agree with nearly everyone.  Not enough Piglet and Tao.  Not enough clever, heart-warming and thought-provoking tales.  Too much complaining and whining about &quot;kids these days.&quot;  Not that I don't agree with most of his criticisms, but not what I wanted to read about in the Te of Piglet. ...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/67643745">more...</a>]]></body>
