The Tao of Pooh (4 stars): Humorous introduction to the basic tenets of Taoism through children's literature and witty comparisons to modern life. By no means a comprehensive dive into the belief system and its current forms, it prepares the reader to seek more for themselves. A wonderful read for one new to the area.

The Te of Piglet (2 stars): Clearly a later addition that "piggy" backs off the first installment (originally conceived as a standalone). While the author's voice comes through much more clearly than in Pooh, this is with the sacrifice of primary source comparisons. There are moments when the author's voice becomes a bit too clear where he posits his personal opinions with little relation to Taoist principles.
