From Sunday Times bestselling author Gyles Brandreth comes the remarkable life of A.A. Milne and the bear who captured millions of hearts...

‘Gyles Brandreth has a touching access to the secrets of the human heart’ The Times--‘Whatever subject an author chooses or has chosen for him, he reveals no secret but the secret of himself’ A A MilneWhen 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.

Some prayers in this book could make some people uncomfortable
Format: Paperback
Some prayers in this book could make some people uncomfortable like those that mention "healing from this spirit of death" when the person might not be feeling like they're dying. e.g., the prayer for healing of basal cell carcinoma. For those who may not be aware, the vast majority of basal cell carcinomas (basal cell skin cancer) does not lead to death. According to the Cleveland Clinic, "The prognosis for people diagnosed with basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is excellent. BCC will rarely spread to other areas of your body and cause harm." However, they also point out that "If you don’t receive treatment for basal cell carcinoma, the skin cancer can slowly grow in size and invade deeper tissues like muscle and bone and cartilage." So although a BCC shouldn't be ignored, I think that praying for healing "from this spirit of death" may scare some people.
