'Whatever subject an author chooses or has chosen for him, he reveals no secret but the secret of himself' A A Milne

When Winnie-the-Pooh first appeared in print on Christmas Eve 1925, his creator had no idea that this bear, and the fellow inhabitants of the Hundred Acre Wood, would go on to capture the imaginations of people of all ages all over the world for the next hundred years.

In this new biography Gyles Brandreth tells the remarkable story of A A Milne - and of the 'bear of very little brain' who went on to become a global phenomenon.

Drawing on his friendship with Milne's son, the real Christopher Robin, Gyles Brandreth has produced a revealing and intimate portrait of a prolific author whose legacy came to be defined by his most famous creation, and of the divided Milne family who for many years had a conflicted relationship with the iconic bear.

This is the story of a man, a boy and a bear - but it is also a gripping family drama, and a fascinating exploration of the complicated nature of growing up, and the impossible longing for a return to the enchanted places of childhood.


'A comprehensive portrait of Milne , going all the way back to Alan Alexander's idyllic childhood. An enchanted world of childhood happiness : that's the power of Winnie-the-Pooh , and that's why it will live on for another hundred years'
The Times
