Winner of the 2014 Newbery Medal Holy unanticipated occurrences A cynic meets an unlikely superhero in a genre-breaking new novel by master storyteller Kate DiCamillo. It begins, as the best superhero stories do, with a tragic accident that has unexpected consequences. The squirrel never saw the vacuum cleaner coming, but self-described cynic Flora Belle Buckman, who has read every issue of the comic book Terrible Things Can Happen to You , is just the right person to step in and save him. What neither can predict is that Ulysses (the squirrel) has been born anew, with powers of strength, flight, and misspelled poetry -- and that Flora will be changed too, as she discovers the possibility of hope and the promise of a capacious heart. From #1 New York Times best-selling author Kate DiCamillo comes a laugh-out-loud story filled with eccentric, endearing characters and featuring an exciting new format -- a novel interspersed with comic-style graphic sequences and full-page illustrations, all rendered in black-and-white by up-and-coming artist K. G. Campbell.Binding Type: Hardcover

Soft, lint-free, and gentle, just a bit thin
Size: 100 Count (Pack of 3), Set name: Classic
These Cliganic cotton rounds are very soft, gentle on the skin, and truly lint-free. I use them daily for makeup removal and skincare, and they feel high quality and comfortable, even on sensitive skin. I also appreciate that they’re made from 100% pure cotton and are hypoallergenic. They do a great job removing makeup and applying toner without falling apart or leaving residue behind. The quantity is excellent as well, 300 rounds is a great value and lasts a long time. The only reason I’m giving four stars instead of five is that the pads are a bit thin. They still work well, but I sometimes need to use two instead of one, especially for heavier makeup.
Overall, these are reliable, gentle cotton rounds that perform well and are a great option for everyday skincare. I would definitely purchase them again.
