When a family buys a house in a struggling town for just one dollar, they're hoping to start over -- but have they traded one set of problems for another? Twelve-year-old Lowen Grover, a budding comic-book artist, is still reeling from the shooting death of his friend Abe when he stumbles across an article about a former mill town giving away homes for just one dollar. It not only seems like the perfect escape from Flintlock and all of the awful memories associated with the city, but an opportunity for his mum to run her very own business. Fortunately, his family is willing to give it a try. But is the Dollar Program too good to be true? The homes are in horrible shape, and the locals are less than welcoming. Will Millville and the dollar house be the answer to the Grovers' troubles? Or will they find they've traded one set of problems for another? From the author of Small as an Elephant and Paper Things comes a heart-tugging novel about guilt and grief, family and friendship, and, above all, community.Binding Type: Hardcover

Scrubby
Style: Italian Bergamot, Size: 5 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I love that the pieces in it feel almost like it's exfoliating. It lathers well, and my skin feels clean after. The smell doesn't cling or feel cheap, it's a well rounded shuttle fragrance. Although my skin loves it, my daughter says her skin gets aittle dried out but she puts lotion in and it's fine. I have been buying this for months now, and encourage you to give this a try. Would also make a great addition to a gift basket.

A nice bar of soap
Style: Palo Santo, Size: 5 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I originally picked this up because I’m a big fan of the bourbon and oak scent, and this didn’t disappoint.
It smells great without being overpowering, and it sticks around just enough without feeling like cologne. The exfoliating texture is solid too. It actually works without being too rough. It also lasts a long time, which was a nice bonus.

Amazing Lather
Style: Italian Bergamot, Size: 5 Ounce (Pack of 1)
This product produces a silky smooth foamy lather effortlessly without melting-down the bar too rapidly. I think it's somewhat unique in this way. Smell is there but not overly aggressive, not overly drying either but effectively cuts body oils. Will buy again again for sure.
