Fynn, de pennaam van Sydney George Hopkins, verdiepte zich in zijn schrijven in diep introspectieve thema's. Zijn werken verkenden vaak de complexiteit van de menselijke geest en de zoektocht naar betekenis in het dagelijks bestaan. Hij stond bekend om zijn betrokkenheid bij alternatieve onderwijsfilosofieën en een diep geloof in individueel potentieel. Fynns literaire benadering wordt gekenmerkt door gevoelige observatie en een meelevend perspectief op de ontwikkeling van kinderen.

Mit ihrer Hartnäckigkeit gelingt es der kleinen Anna, den alten Mathematiklehrer Tom davon zu überzeugen, dass es äMister Gottä wirklich gibt.
In 1974, Fynn told the story of Anna, a waif from London's East End whom he found wandering near the docks one foggy night. Mister God, This is Anna was the touching account of the remarkable friendship between an intuitive, intelligent and disconcertingly perceptive child and the young man of nineteen who befriended her. In the course of the extraordinary relationship that developed between them, Anna changed Fynns life forever, as her story changed the lives of millions of readers. Now Fynn brings us Anna's Book, a complilation of Anna's own writings, which Fynn has saved since her death. Fresh with the unexpected insights of a child, Anna's Book deals with such diverse and vital subjects as organized religion, the Bible, and Anna's relationships with her absent mother and with Fynn. But most of all, Anna's Book is about Mister God, more real and compelling to Anna than anyone or anything else in the world.
From the moment Anna and Fynn locked eyes, their times together were filled with delight and discovery. In her completely frank and honest way, Anna had an astonishing ability to ask--and answer--life's largest questions, and to feel the purpose of being. You see, Anna had a very special friendship with Mr. God. "Extraordinarily moving!" PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
