Discover the life and legacy of celebrated Mexican artist Diego Rivera in this picture book by award-winning author and illustrator Duncan Tonatiuh A Pura Belpr Illustrator Award Winner Diego Rivera, one of the most famous painters of the twentieth century, was once just a mischievous little boy who loved to draw. But this little boy would grow up to follow his passion and greatly influence the world of art. After studying in Spain and France as a young man, Diego was excited to return to his home country of Mexico. There, he toured from the coasts to the plains to the mountains. He met the peoples of different regions and explored the cultures, architecture, and history of those that had lived before. Returning to Mexico City, he painted great murals representing all that he had seen. He provided the Mexican people with a visual history of who they were and, most important, who they are. Award-winning author and illustrator Duncan Tonatiuh, who has also been inspired by the art and culture of his native Mexico, asks, if Diego was still painting today, what history would he tell through his artwork? What stories would he bring to life? Drawing inspiration from Rivera to create his own original work, Tonatiuh helps young readers to understand the importance of Diego Rivera's artwork and to realize that they too can tell stories through art.Binding Type: Hardcover

GREAT WATCH!
Size: 25mm, Color: Two-Tone/Gold-Tone/White/25mm
This is a basic but practical watch with no bells and whistles. Have tried many sport watches that were difficult to set and program various features. It has an expansion band with combined gold and silver accents, so it goes with everything! Finally a watch that is attractive and keeps good time. In summary, it's just a good timepiece for every day wear.

Expansion band proved a disappointment
Size: 25mm, Color: Two-Tone/Two-Tone/White/25mm
I shopped many watches before I decided on this Timex model. I've been wearing Timex watches for the last several years and have found them to be reliable and reasonably priced, so I was pretty much set on buying a Timex. I have one of their Weekender models with a couple of different straps, which I alternate depending on what I'm wearing, and I really like it. I also had a dressy model with the same easy-to-read dial that had an expansion band, and it died on me after several years, so I bought this watch as a replacement. The watch works fine, and I like the easy-to-read dial and also the fact that it has the Indiglo light. Plus, the watch is attractive. I was disappointed, however, in the band. The expansion band on my old watch fit perfectly, and the edges of the band were nicely rounded and smooth so that it was very easy and comfortable to put on and take off. However, the band on this new watch seems a little bit smaller, so it tends to pinch a bit. Also, the edges are sharper, which makes the watch rather uncomfortable to put on and remove. This was a let down. I don't know if these differences are due to a decline in quality control, an effort to reduce costs, or what. I considered returning the watch and buying a different model, but since there wasn't actually anything wrong with the watch, I knew I'd have to pay return shipping, and I didn't want to invest that extra money. So I kept the watch. But I'm not entirely happy with it, solely because of the band. Of course, that's the problem with shopping online--you can't try it on before you buy. If you have a thin wrist, this band may be fine for you, but if you have an average or larger wrist, you may likewise be dissatisfied.

Old fashion quality. Love it.
Size: 25mm, Color: Two-Tone/Gold-Tone/White/25mm
I’m so pleased with my Timex watch. I can actually see the numbers and the added feature of the lighted face is great.

Perfect for Training (Swimming) Purposes.... 5 Star for what it does as a training watch!
Color: Black/Yellow
This is already my 2nd TIMEX which I use for my swimming practices..
This one beats the older model (Timex 51931 Ironman Triathlon) with some interesting changes:
1) The larger digits on this model makes it easier to read the numbers (as some mentioned to do so when running) even when I am swimming, with a quick flick of the wrist at the turn, it's possible to see the minutes and the seconds.... The older model had smaller number, thus not making it possible to do this.
2) The navigation on this model became quite easier. It was already easy on the older model but this one included instructions on screen, such as NEXT, DONE, + or - in order to advance with your practices and training... Plus a chance to change the way you want to see the information of the your laps (Laps in the big digits and splits at the smaller one, or the oposite)
A Real nice add on by TIMEX.
3) A simple but effective wrist band "clip" (the tiny piece of strap that attachs the "extra" wrist band that is left after you put the clock on)
It has a piece of rubber on the inside that locks on at the wrist band and does not make it loose or even letting it go as some other watches do sometimes. This is more effective underwater I think, as it remains the way you set your wrist, as the older model I had did not quite held in place all the time.
4) Plenty of memory (100 laps is really a nice number), maybe more then most will need but, as a swimmer I use to count splits over 100m (or yards) with many laps during one training... It is quite usefull. I go easily on 10 to 15 laps of the memory in one training.
And with the date feature, that reminds when you did these times, it is quite usefull to keep track on the training with a spreadsheet, for instance... (as I do !)
5) A really big START/SPLIT buttom that is great to press when I am swimming laps and have to press myself at each turn at the pool.
Just perfect. Never a miss !
And the feature which was already at most of the models, of the repeat countdown, and the start of a chrono, or a repeat (what I use the most) in order race agains your average rhitym inside a certain time frame that you can set it up ! And of course the flix technology, which is very good to have it... Just flick your wrist (when you set it to ON) and it will show you at night all info that you need.
It is another great watch from TIMEX and it deserves a look, specially for the price. It is worth to pay a bit more if you are like me and uses a lot of the memory for the laps on swimming pool. Maybe for runners it can be quite a lot of memory, but the price difference is worth the change, for some of the options mentioned at this review.
This is a really good watch to have..
Will you definatelly like as we all are at these reviews.
:-) It deserves the 5 stars rating !
