Captains Courageous

Captains Courageous by Rudyard Kipling

The Tao of Pooh

The Tao of Pooh by Benjamin Hoff

The characters from Winnie the Pooh help explain the philosophy of Taoism. The philosophy encourages one to take life as it comes. The anticipation of something can be better than the actual experience. Looking for too much can cause one to be miserable. I need to dig up some details that I wrote about it when I read it a long time ago.

The Wind in the Willows by Kenneth Grahame
