How Nancy Jackson Married Kate Wilson and Other Tales of Rebellious Girls and Daring Young WomenBoyhood is the most familiar province of Mark Twain's fiction, but a reader doesn't have to look far to find feminine territory and it's not the perfectly neat and respectable place where you'd expect to see Becky Thatcher.

Boyhood is the most familiar province of Mark Twain's fiction, but a reader doesn't have to look far to find feminine territory--and it's not the perfectly neat and respectable place where you'd expect to see Becky Thatcher. This is a fictional world where rather than polishing their domestic arts and waiting for marriage proposals, girls are fighting battles, riding stallions, rescuing boys from rivers, cross-dressing, debating religion, hunting, squaring off against angry bulls, or, in what may be the most flagrant flouting of Victorian convention, marrying other women. This special edition brings together the best of Twain's stories about unconventional girls and women, from Eve as she names the animals in Eden to Joan of Arc to the transvestite farce of a young man named Alice from the Wapping district of London. Whatever they're doing--bopping boys with a baseball bat in Hellfire Hotchkiss, treating the author to a life story and a dogsled ride in The Esquimau Maiden's Romance, or sacrificing all for the sake of a horse, as in A Horse's Tale--these women and girls are surprising, provocative, and irresistibly entertaining in the great Twain tradition in which they now finally take their rightful place.

This is the best nursing bag I've purchased so far
Color: C02- Generic Sunflower, Size: Large
I am one of those nurses that "lives" at work so I bring everything that I might possibly need in a twelve hour shift - including my planners, pens, medications, drinks, and toiletries on top of my usual nursing items. I am usually stumbling into work with multiple bags but this one solved that problem. I got the large bag. I looked at it at first and said, "nah, it's not going to be big enough" but as I opened it and started putting my items inside, I couldn't believe how much it holds. It's good quality and the design is beautiful and not blurry or "fake" looking. There are 6 outside pockets and multiple inside pockets for organization. I prefer the handles over the shoulder strap because it's pretty heavy when I load it up but so fst, seems to be good quality and holds up to my needs. It's not a bad price, either. It's comfortable and well made. I will have to come back and post a picture/video during the day.

cute, roomy, good material
Color: A20- Dental, Size: Large, Color: A20- Dental, Size: Large
This is way bigger than what I thought! I would've gotten a medium just cause I'm not sure it'll fit in my locker but I’ll still use it lol! I absolutely L❤️VE this bag and it is so cuteeee! Im a dental assistant so I got the bag with teeth ✨🦷 I have been carrying a dollar general tote bag for work to carry all my stuff. So this is a major upgrade for my work bag! It’s so spacious with lots of pockets. The material feels thick and durable also. Has purse straps and a shoulder strap so you can carry it different ways.

Overstuffer Approved
Color: B23- Nurse Black With Leopard Embroidery, Size: Medium
I love this bag. At first I didn’t think it would work for me because of the size and feel of the material but it’s actually pretty sturdy. The outside pockets hold my cell phone, beats earphone case, charger, and car keys perfectly. I carry my stethoscope, thermometer, O2 spot checker, etc, notebook, book, my purse, lotion, and wallet inside. The water bottle pocket on the side is deep and snug enough to fit a ninja travel cup. I bought the smaller size and as an overstuffer, it’s spacious & the zipper is flexible so it covers items that may stick out from the top a little. Great bag for nurses!

Very spacious
Color: A29- Nurse Tool, Size: Large
I was looking for a spacious bag to carry all of my school supplies and this one is perfect. It’s able to fit both of my large school books, a 5 subject notebook, multiple pocket folder, notecards box, pencil case and my laptop in an interior padded compartment. The padding is a little thin but none the less I didn’t realize it came with one so that was a bonus. It has 3 pockets inside & 3 deep pocket outside on each side of the bag plus the 2 mesh pockets. As you can see the mesh pocket fits my 40 oz tumbler. With all of my items this bag weighs 24lbs and so far so good the straps feel pretty sturdy/durable.
