DogMomIrene Bahwhahahaha! My husband and I were grocery shopping last week, and he said he was going to wait to buy candy so he wouldn‘t be tempted to open it early. I volunteered to hide it so we could check it off our to do list. I did a good job because he hasn‘t found it, but I keep thinking about it😂 4w

The World of Christopher Robin | Ernest Howard Shepard, Alan Alexander Milne

I thought this was going to be “the” Winnie the Pooh book, but it wasn‘t. It was a lot of silly, childish rhymes supposedly from Christopher Robin with a very few with Winnie the Pooh. I liked 11 out of 81 poems/stories.

The Te of Piglet | Benjamin Hoff

Nineties attitudes are alive and well and appropriating my childhood! I would not recommend this to anyone, for any reason. If you were looking for a quick, coherent guide into the tenets of Taoism, this ain't it. If you were looking for a pop psychology/self help type book cogently examining the philosophical or spiritual traits of dear Piglet, this ain't it. 1/?

Robotswithpersonality 2/? The author has opinions about everything that's wrong with society today, but they're presented as (uncited) facts and generalizations. If this was a choice to bulk up the book by matching Taoist thinking to all the ways it can fix what's wrong in the world, it's a clumsy effort. Likewise what is objectively an important environmental message gets buried under a lot of other tidbits and is left feeling out of place with the tone of the book. 7mo

Robotswithpersonality 3/? Considering the amount that other people are quoted, the author may have been better off producing a book of quotations.
Don't get me started on the steaming pile that is the Eeyore Effect chapter. Definitely some toxic positivity added to the mix. 7mo

Robotswithpersonality 4/4 I could expound further on all the ways I found this book patronizing or offensive but I really don't want to spend any more time thinking about it.
I'll have to track down some of the actual Winnie the Pooh books to give my brain a good rinse. 7mo
