Cinderella's sisters surgically modify their feet to win the prince's love. A werewolf gathers up enough courage to visit a dentist. A medium trying to reach the afterworld gets a recorded message. A fox and a badger compete to out-fool each other. Whether writing of insomnia from a mosquito's point of view or showing us what happens after the princess kisses the frog, Ana Mar a Shua, in these fleet and incandescent stories, is nothing if not pithy--except, of course, wildly entertaining. Some as short as a sentence, these microfictions have been selected and translated from four different books. Flashes of insight, cracks of wit, twists of logic, and quirks of language: these are fictions in the distinguished Argentinean tradition of Borges and Cort zar and Denevi, as powerful as they are brief. One of Argentina's most prolific and distinguished writers, and acclaimed worldwide, Shua displays in these microfictions the epitome of her humor, riddling logic, and mastery over our imagination. Now, for the first time in English, the fox transforms itself into a fable, and "the reader is invited to find the tail."Binding Type: Paperback

Works great, could use a better sprayer
Style: Kids SPF 50, Size: 5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I gave it 4 stars ONLY because I've had the nozzle break on at least 1 of these. So they could improve the way it sprays, but overall I'm very happy with the product. It keeps my whole family from getting burned and goes on clear. I love this because my kids always complain that they don't like the whitecast, so this one is a keeper!

Really nice sunscreen
Style: Kids SPF 50, Size: 5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I always buy kids sunscreen because everything else burns my eyes. I haven't notices this stuff burning. It smells really nice and doesn't feel yucky going on like some stuff does.

DOESNT SPRAY do not buy
Style: Kids SPF 50, Size: 5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Doesn’t work AT ALL. And I’m annoyed because it’s not eligible for return even with prime. What am I supposed to do with a sunscreen that won’t spray? YES, it’s in thru blocked position, it will not spray. I’d love my money back please.

Do NOT buy, it’s literal poison. Has forever chemicals.
Style: SPF 50 Spray Mineral Sunscreen, Size: 4.5 Ounce (1 Pack), Style: SPF 50 Spray Mineral Sunscreen, Size: 4.5 Ounce (1 Pack)
🚨do NOT buy this🚨It has forever chemicals in it - Tetrafluoropropene. Also has Hydrogenated polydecene - The chemical structure of synthetic hydrocarbons is similar to that of MOSH, another group of petrochemical-derived ingredients. A 2016 study states that "it seems prudent to assess their safety in the same way," suggesting that they could have comparable toxic effects on the body. MOSH may accumulate in the body, particularly in lymph nodes and body fat, where they could trigger inflammatory reactions. Liver effects have also been observed experimentally in certain types of rats, but have not been confirmed in humans to date. The European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) recommends continuing studies to better assess the toxicity of these MOSH compounds, as "the consequences of the long-term accumulation of MOSH on human health have not been evaluated and remain uncertain." These compounds should especially be avoided in products where there is a risk of ingestion, such as lip balms and lipsticks.
Moreover, the production of this ingredient has a significant environmental impact due to the extraction of hydrocarbons from underground and the high energy consumption required for its manufacture.
*5 stars only so people will see this.*
