Hoff explains that the meaning of Te (pronounced DEH) is “ virtue in action” and that it is a “quality of special character, spiritual strength, or hidden potential unique to the individual–something that comes from the Inner Nature of things. In The Te of Piglet we learn how even the most unsure individuals have great potential, which means that we can all achieve great things, we just have to react to the Universe in a constructive way. In The Tao of Pooh we were introduced to some of the figures of the Hundred Acre Wood like Owl, Rabbit, and–of course–Pooh in that book we learn some of the benefits of following the Way ( Tao) of Pooh and some cautionary tales about how other characters believe and behave. Both books’ purpose is to explain Taoism (and its benefits to humanity and the world) through the familiar characters of A.A. Summary: The Te of Piglet is a follow-up book to author Benjamin Hoff’s original work The Tao of Pooh.
