This is one of the most highly anticipated memoirs in recent memory. For the first time, Prince Harry shares his journey in his own words. The memoir covers Prince Harry's life from his early years as a young boy growing up in the Royal Family up to the current time, including his life in California with his wife and children. It was one of the most searing images of the twentieth century: two young boys, two princes, walking behind their mother's coffin as the world watched in sorrow - and horror. As Diana, Princess of Wales, was laid to rest, billions wondered what the princes must be thinking and feeling - and how their lives would play out from that point on. For Harry, this is that story at last. With its raw, unflinching honesty, Spare is a landmark publication full of insight, revelation, self-examination, and hard-won wisdom about the eternal power of love over grief.

Fake fuel oil deliveries at just one power station cost Eskom R100 million per month; kneepads retailing for R150 a pair were purchased for R80 000; billions of rands of equipment supposedly housed in the company’s storerooms was missing.

So, you’re having a teenager? Congratulations/commiserations. Worried about drugs? We recommend Valium, wine and HRT. Happy you survived the toddler tantrums?

Journalist Sarah Macdonald and cartoonist Cathy Wilcox have lived through it all and produced this straight talking, not entirely sarcastic, informative guide to what, for many parents are the most challenging – but interesting and exciting – years in the role. From A is for Argumentative, Awkward and Angst, to Z is for Zits and Zzzzzs. Because having a toddler is a doddle.
