Pulitzer Prize in General Nonfiction finalist
Winner of the 2014 National Book Award in nonfictionAn Economist Best Book of 2014 Winner of the bronze medal for the Council on Foreign Relations' 2015 Arthur Ross Book Award A vibrant, colorful, and revelatory inner history of China during a moment of profound transformation From abroad, we often see China as a caricature: a nation of pragmatic plutocrats and ruthlessly dedicated students destined to rule the global economy-or an addled Goliath, riddled with corruption and on the edge of stagnation. What we don't see is how both powerful and ordinary people are remaking their lives as their country dramatically changes.
As the Beijing correspondent for The New Yorker, Evan Osnos was on the ground in China for years, witness to profound political, economic, and cultural upheaval. In Age of Ambition, he describes the greatest collision taking place in that country: the clash between the rise of the individual and the Communist Party's struggle to retain control. He asks probing questions: Why does a government with more success lifting people from poverty than any civilization in history choose to put strict restraints on freedom of expression? Why do millions of young Chinese professionals-fluent in English and devoted to Western pop culture-consider themselves angry youth, dedicated to resisting the West's influence? How are Chinese from all strata finding meaning after two decades of the relentless pursuit of wealth?
Writing with great narrative verve and a keen sense of irony, Osnos follows the moving stories of everyday people and reveals life in the new China to be a battleground between aspiration and authoritarianism, in which only one can prevail.

Absolutely love!!
Size: 0.47 Ounce (Pack of 1)
By far the best baby sunscreen I’ve used! Better than Mustela sunscreen stick. This one glides on comfortably, is sheer and does not go on white at all, and smells great and the lid slides on and off easily. It’s quite durable and just the ultimate best sunscreen stick. The ingredients seem to be as safe and nontoxic as the other big brands and the price is very reasonable. Will be repurchasing.

Less chemicals than others and it works! Need to sell a larger version however!
Sun protection factor: 50 Sun Protection Factor (SPF), Size: 0.49 Ounce (Pack of 1)
Easy application and excellent for sun protection! One of the "cleaner" ones with less chemicals, but could be cleaner. The tube is very small, so we only use this for face and use Alba Botanica for body. Last time swimming for 1.5 hours, did not burn, while friends who used other sunscreens on their faces were sunburned. Coppertone, please make a bigger tube!

Was NOT Moana themed
Sun protection factor: 50 Sun Protection Factor (SPF), Size: 0.49 Ounce (Pack of 1)
Worked perfectly for our Disney trip. Fit well in our fanny packs. Kind of greasy, but its hard to get away from that with sunscreen.
Be advised, though, it was NOT Moana. It was just a regular stick. My kids were a little disappointed.

Perfect little sunscreen
Sun protection factor: 50 Sun Protection Factor (SPF), Size: 0.49 Ounce (Pack of 1)
Easy for my son to apply himself at summer camp. Compact size for his backpack. Only downfall is it goes on white until fully rubbed in, which is normally fine but when my son is trying to get his face himself at camp it is hard for him. Wish it went clear on its own.
