To Kill a Mockingbird meets One Crazy Summer in this powerful, bittersweet debut about one girl's journey to reconnect with her mother and learn the truth about her father in the tumultuous times of the Jim Crow South.
"Timely, captivating, and lovely. So glad this book is in the world." --Jacqueline Woodson, author of Brown Girl Dreaming

In the small town of Alcolu, South Carolina, in 1944, 12-year-old Ella spends her days fishing and running around with her best friend Henry and cousin Myrna. But life is not always so sunny for Ella, who gets bullied for her light skin tone and whose mother is away pursuing a jazz singer dream in Boston.

So Ella is ecstatic when her mother invites her to visit for Christmas. Little does she expect the truths she will discover about her mother, the father she never knew and her family's most unlikely history.

And after a life-changing month, she returns South and is shocked by the news that her schoolmate George has been arrested for the murder of two local white girls.

Bittersweet and eye-opening, How High the Moon is a timeless novel about a girl finding herself in a world all but determined to hold her down.

Nice shirt, wrong color
The shirt is very nice, but was supposed to be "dirty blue. It is not. A;though the package clearly says "dirty blue", this shirt is a dark grey. Period. Now, that is not a bad thing, as my outfits can go with blue, grey or brown. But, when I order a particular shade or color, I do like to get it. The picture on the website depicting what a "dirty blue" shirt looks like, is nothing like what I received. But, i do like the shirt, and as it happens I like the color. Just not what I ordered. Now, the size is correct, and the fit is great. The material is nice and soft and quite comfortable to wear. It actually looks good on me! The quality of the shirt is excellent- the stitching, fabric and style. The price point is quite favorable, in fact, is is very good. The shirt, overall is a five star shirt, and would be- had i not received a grey shirt instead of a "dirty blue". Still, I would recommend this shirt, especially if color and shade is not paramount to you.

Very nice shirt and fits great
I ordered this shirt for my husband and he loves it! The size fits well and looks great both dressed up or down. The material is lightweight and breathable. He really liked that the buttons are hidden/protected under the outside flap. Overall, very happy with this order and would recommend to anyone.

Great summer shirt
This shirt fits extremely well, it is definitely true to size and no shrinkage or wrinkles after washing. It’s made with 75% polyester 20% viscose and 5% elastane (never heard of the last two). It is very soft and feels nice on the skin with a slight cooling effect. Perfect length to leave untucked. The color is very nice and it has 1 breast pocket with the short sleeves cuffed which makes the shirt look even better. It does have color matched buttons but when it is buttoned it has no show buttons which I think it would look nicer if it was just a regular button down. This shirt will definitely be in my spring and summer rotation.

Great looking shirt
The color and pattern on this shirt is really nice. My camera can't capture it well at all. But in person this shirt is great looking. It is soft and comfortable, easy to wear. Size is true. I'm quite happy with this shirt.

Very well built, will last you a very long time
Style: Trifold, Style: Trifold
This wallet is very sturdy, and barely has any wear on it after I've purchased it over a year ago. Most wallets will start to greatly scuff, wear, or degrade/break down just from being taken in and out of your pocket but this wallet has held up particularly wear with VERY MINIMAL light scuffing. Quality leather so I know I will have this wallet for a very long time! It has great card holding capacity as i currently have about 10 cards in it and it still has a pretty slim profile. The wallet itself is a very nice, natural looking wallet. The ease of pulling cards in and out definitely has made me a fan.
