«Teh van Knorretje» is the philosophical essay by Benjamin Hoff, published by Sirius en Siderius in paperback (236 pages, in Dutch).
Drawing on A. A. Milne's characters, Benjamin Hoff explains Taoism through the figure of Piglet (Knorretje in Dutch). Scenes and dialogues from Winnie-de-Poeh show how humility, sensitivity and smallness contain a wisdom close to Eastern thought, in contrast with the pursuit of greatness.
The cover subtitle indicates that it includes illustrations by E. H. Shepard; the editorial record notes edition number 1, published on 20 April 1994.
May appeal to readers of Eastern philosophy and to those who enjoy the stories of Winnie-de-Poeh.
Benjamin Hoff is an American author. He is best known as the author of The Tao of Pooh (1982) and The Te of Piglet (1992). In 2006, he denounced the publishing industry and announced his resignation from book-writing. His book, The Singing Creek Where the Willows Grow, won the American Book Award in 1988.
