Lindsay Mattick è l'autrice di un libro illustrato che approfondisce l'unicità del legame della sua famiglia con l'orsacchiotto più famoso del mondo, Winnie-the-Pooh. In quanto pronipote del Capitano Harry Colebourn, Mattick è cresciuta immaginando Winnie come il suo personale 'bis-nonno orso'. Ha condiviso la storia della sua famiglia tramite un documentario radiofonico e ha guidato una mostra originale per commemorare la fine della Prima Guerra Mondiale. Dopo un decennio nel settore delle pubbliche relazioni, dove ha contribuito a plasmare le storie altrui, ora condivide con entusiasmo la propria.
A woman tells her young son the true story of how his great-great-grandfather, Captain Harry Colebourn, rescued and learned to love a bear cub in 1914 as he was on his way to take care of soldiers' horses during World War I, and the bear became the inspiration for A.A. Milne's Winnie-the-Pooh. A sophisticated picture book.

Unglaublich, berührend, sensationell und spannend für Generationen von Winnie-the-Pooh-Fans! Wer hätte gedacht, dass es ihn, Pardon, sie wirklich gegeben hat? Winnie, auch bekannt als „Pu, der Bär“, war eine Amerikanische Schwarzbärin, die der kanadische Soldat Harry Colebourn auf seinem Weg zur Front im ersten Weltkrieg fand. Wie er sie liebevoll aufzog und nach Europa brachte, und wie es schließlich zu den Geschichten im Siebenmorgenwald kam, erzählt dessen Urenkelin Lindsay Mattick einfühlsam ihrem eigenen Sohn. Und wir dürfen lauschen, staunen und Kopfschütteln. Um hinterher glücklich und dankbar zu sein, dass dies alles wirklich wahr ist und unser Liebling durch A. A. Milnes Erzählungen unvergesslich wurde.
