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.

Great for Sun Allergy Rashes!
Scent: Unscented, Scent: Unscented
I have an autoimmune disease called Sjogren’s Disease. With that, for me, comes a sensitivity to the sun in the form of sun allergy rashes. Also with that, I did a deep dive on the best sunscreens and read a lot of reviews on here. I put some of the outer sides of elbows where my sun allergy rashes were when I received it. There was slight sting, but the skin there was already slightly broken. I really love the texture of it, how it feels on my skin and that there's no white cast. It’s moisturizing, too, with no greasiness. Absorbed really well.

The best mineral sunscreen
Scent: Unscented
I’m so impressed by this sunscreen! I’ve been using mineral sunscreens for years and this blows every other one I’ve tried out of the water. It is silky smooth and applies so easily, absorbs well and doesn’t feel greasy or heavy. It doesn’t leave a white cast but it still protects very well! Of course like any sunscreen it’s only as effective as your usage, so reapplying is paramount. The unscented truly has no smell to it, which is something I appreciate. Using it for the first time, neither myself or my fair kiddos got sunburnt. It’s just all around a fantastic, clean mineral sunscreen and will be my go to from now on!

Wellness Staple for Sensitive Skin
Scent: Pear & Coconut Water, Scent: Pear & Coconut Water
I’m becoming much more intentional about the products I use on and around my body, especially while traveling, and this sunscreen ended up being one of the best things we packed for our girls trip to Mexico. My friend has extremely sensitive skin and typically reacts to a lot of sunscreens, so we wanted something mineral-based, reef safe, and more wellness-conscious overall. We split one bottle between the two of us over about five days, and honestly it held up really well. It felt lightweight for a mineral sunscreen, blended in better than expected, and didn’t leave our skin feeling greasy or irritated in the heat. Most importantly, neither of us experienced sensitivity issues or breakouts during the trip. I also appreciated the peace of mind of using something reef safe while spending so much time in the ocean. It’s one of those products that aligns well with a more mindful, health-focused lifestyle without sacrificing effectiveness.

Love the scent
Scent: Tropical Breeze
This sunscreen has such a great scent and is easy to apply with no white cast. Skin doesn't feel clogged or sweaty. Easy to apply and distribute. Like that it's a zinc oxide sunscreen that is doesn't leave a white cast and has a wonderful tropical scent. Wish it came in SPF 50 or higher.
