  Piglet (Winnie the Pooh) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Piglet is a small piglet who is a good friend of Pooh in the Winnie-the-Pooh stories.
Piglet was once referred to as "Henry Pootel" by Christopher Robin, who did not recognize Piglet after he was thoroughly cleaned by Kanga.
The Te of Piglet was written by Benjamin Hoff following the publication of The Tao of Pooh.

 The Te of Piglet - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
He did this by writing his The Te of Piglet, published in 1992.
The book is based around two topics, the concept of Te, the Chinese word meaning 'power' or 'virtue' and Piglet, of the Winnie the Pooh books.
In The Te of Piglet, Piglet is shown to possess great power — a common interpretation of the word Te, which more commonly means Virtue-, not only because he is small, but, also, because he has a great heart or, to use a Taoist/Chinese word, Tz'u.

 The Te of Piglet: Current Amazon U.S.A. One-Edition Data
Piglet, you see, is a ``Very Small Animal'' (for all his talk about smallness, Hoff, like A.A. Milne, who must be groaning in his grave, likes capital letters Very Much), and the diminutive porker's adventures are the perfect means to preach, Very Lightly, about being positive and ecological and upright.
Benjamin Hoff's follow-up to the Tao of Pooh, the Te of Piglet, is neither as fun or as interesting as the previous work.
Te, the Taoist principle of the virtue of the small includes, according to Hoff, leaving a small footprint (as opposed to a large one) on the earth - as this book has a decidedly more ecological slant to it.

Piglet shows the Way, turning his smallness into an asset and embodying Te (pronounced deh), the Chinese word for virtue.
Now, as luck would have it, Pooh's buddy Piglet turns out to be the perfect embodiment of Te, the Taoist term for virtue, which is attained through sensitivity, modesty, and smallness.
The Te of Piglet seemed like little more than Mr Hoff's attempt to rub the success of the first book in the face of his critics.

Those two common letters combined, TE (pronounced "deuh"), are almost as significant to the understanding of Taoism as the Tao itself.
The Tao of Pooh and The Te of Piglet are great ways for Easterners to learn about Taoism, but "A Classic about the Way of Integrity"–the Tao Te Ching, an ancient manuscript–is rich with paradox and mysterious metaphor.
Authorship of the Tao Te Ching is essentially unknown, like some other notable scriptures, but myths abound about a contemporary of the great Confucius, a fellow named Lao-tzu, who gets credit for putting down in writing some of the lessons that Taoism teaches.

Besides the difficulty in translating an ancient Chinese text (the Tao Te Ching may well have been written around 500BC, although the earliest existing copy dates from 167BC), there is the difficulty of properly representing the philosophical style and intent.

Simply because one can make a detailed comparison of the acts and behavioral qualities which render Piglet Piglet, and they may not match those of oneself in any but the most partial or casual way, should be no impediment in the identification of one as a Piglet-ist.
Often, Piglet and his animal friends are described as "marching" to the houses of Owl or Kanga, and Goreans are sometimes identically described as "marching" to various places.

It's great to meet another fan of Hoff Yes Hoff does interject a little rant here and there in the Te but he is also trying to get his message across that it is the established beliefs and mindsets that cause people to feel justified in destroying the earth and the lives of others.
The Te of Piglet is an aggressive attack at the people (or rather the kind of people) that Hoff doesn't seem to like.

He builds up the expectation that he will show you how to change for the better, a change from the pessimistic Eeyore and Tigger (Western) tendencies against nature to the Piglet (Eastern) tendency to be meek, mild, working with nature, and rising to the occasion with greatness.
