Story4.5 out of 5 stars 29
In this hilarious and life-affirming memoir, Rob explores what it will take for him to become a little less Bear (Pooh) and a little bit more Bear (Grylls) and how mild-mannered, anxious rule-followers can get their own share of (gentle) adventure from time to time.

I found this book because it was mentioned on the Very British Problems Instagram page. I figured it had to be funny because the VBPs always make me laugh but then I saw the narrator was Matthew Baynton (Horrible Histories) and I couldn’t click “buy now with one credit” fast enough. I listened to the entire book in two days. I laughed out loud till the end. Narration is great due to Mr Baynton’s own comic capabilities. There are some very serious issues addressed in the life of the author but they are addressed with humor and a positive approach. I hope Mr Temple is working on a second book right now, because I didn’t want this one to end. Mr Baynton has a perfectly delightful reading voice that suited the content and tone as it changed over the book.
