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.

Entertaining
Color: Blue
This smart ball is a great toy for your dog. It’s the perfect size for most dogs and it’s made of durable material that chewing doesn’t hurt. It’s easy to charge and will run for hours. It’s very quiet and has 3 modes of play to choose from, rolling, bouncing or a combination of both to keep them (and you) entertained for hours.

I bought this interactive ball for my dog, and it has been an excellent purchase. He loves playing with it because it moves and bounces on its own, keeping him entertained for a long time. It feels durable, is easy to charge, and is of very high quality. I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a fun, long-lasting toy for their pets.

Not Golden Retriever Proof
Color: Red
My Golden Retriever destroyed this ball within a couple hours of receiving it. Turned my back for a minute and she had it open and chewed on the internal part wrecking the charging port. Then proceeded to rip chunks off of the outer part. This is a great idea but maybe make it more difficult to open. BTW, my dog loved the ball when it was functioning properly.

Great Interactive Toy
Color: Blue
This toy is amazing for keeping my dog entertained and active! The movement feature really grabs my dog’s attention, and he loves chasing and playing with it. It is strong and durable, and the design is very cute. It’s also great for preventing boredom, especially when my dog has extra energy. The battery lasts a good amount of time and it was very easy to set up. My dog plays with it every day and hasn’t gotten tired of it. I highly recommend this toy to anyone who wants a fun and interactive way to keep their dog happy and busy!
