Annie Oakley"Nothing more simple, I assure you. But I'll tell you what. You must have your mind, your never, and everything in harmony. Don't look at your gun, simply follow the object with end of it, as if the tip of the barrel was the point of your finger." Annie Oakley Annie Oakley is a legend?

"Nothing more simple, I assure you....But I'll tell you what. You must have your mind, your never, and everything in harmony. Don't look at your gun, simply follow the object with end of it, as if the tip of the barrel was the point of your finger." -Annie Oakley

Annie Oakley is a legend? America's greatest female sharpshooter, a woman who triumphed in the masculine world of road shows and firearms. Despite her great fame, the popular image of Annie Oakley is far from true. She was neither a swaggering western gal nor a sweet "little girl." Annie Oakley was a competitive and resolute woman who wanted to be the best and succeeded. In this comprehensive biography Shirl Kasper sets the record straight, giving us an accurate, honest, and compelling portrait of the woman known as "Little Sure Shot."

Born Phoebe Ann Moses in Ohio in 1860. Annie took her first shot at age eight?"one of the best shots I ever made," Annie later said. It was the start of her lifelong fascination with shooting. Early local acclaim led to a contest with Frank Butler, a professional sharpshooter. Annie won and Frank fell in love with her. Annie and Frank (who eventually gave up his own act to be Annie's manager) were wed not long after and remained married for forty-two years, until their deaths in 1926 just day apart.

Annie's sharpshooting career began while on the road with Frank's show, but she rose to fame in her seventeen years with Buffalo Bill's Wild West. Her speed, agility, uncanny precision, and charm soon made Annie world famous. Shooting was her passion; apart from her career with the Wild West, Annie hunted, shot trap, entered many shooting contests, performed for World War I troops, and, in her retirement years, taught thousands of women how to shoot.

Annie Oakley provides a vivid and unforgettable portrait of this American original: a prim and proper woman, conservative in her views, hand-working and frugal, whose greatest source of pride was to be accepted as "a lady." Significant events are documented here for the first time: Annie's decision to join the struggling Wild West show; her meeting with Sitting Bull; the nature of her feud with Lillian Smith, another Wild West markswoman; and the real reason that Annie's hair suddenly turned white when she was only forty-one. Thoroughly researched, fully annotated, and entirely unsentimental, this volume is the most complete and record of Annie Oakley's life and achievements.

Toddler boy loves them!!
Size: 9 Toddler, Color: Purple, Size: 9 Toddler, Color: Purple
My toddler boy absolutely loves the color purple and he squealed with delight when he got these from the Easter bunny. They are true to size and he says they are very comfortable to wear. Easy for him to slip on by himself. He decorated them with sea animals and they are his favorite shoes to wear every day! They’ve held up great over the last month so far. Photo included of his favorite way to wear them (on the wrong feet lol). Will definitely purchase another purple pair when these get too small.

Perfect pristine condition
Size: 12 Little Kid, Color: Mint Tint
Bought this in a neutral light green for my grandson's extra shoes for his weekend visits. Got a size larger than what he wears now, so he has to wear them "four-wheel drive" (w/ straps). Honestly, I just got the cheapest in this size, because he's at that big growth time, and they'll end up in the charity box before he wears them out. Crocs are of a good quality, and seem ideal for little growing feet. They clean up easily in the dishwasher or with a little scrub in the sink. They're easily replaced, and if they get swept up by the wind and deposited into a lake, they will float and may be easily fetched up in a net and returned to the owner (true story). Crocs dry fast, and keep feet from lingering odors without additives.

They Shouldn’t Work But Here We Are
Size: 13 Little Kid, Color: Mystic Purple
Let’s address the elephant in the room: Crocs look like a rubber cheese grater had a baby with a sandal. And yet somehow these things are a parenting cheat code. The comfort is unreal (10/10). Kids slip them on and suddenly they’re walking on clouds, bouncing around like tiny caffeinated marshmallows. Cleaning them is almost suspiciously easy (10/10) mud, juice, questionable playground goo just rinse and move on like nothing ever happened. The ventilation holes (9/10) actually do their job, keeping little feet from becoming sweaty disasters, though they also double as convenient entry points for sand, pebbles, and whatever treasures your kid decides to collect. Style wise (7/10), look… no one is winning fashion awards here, but kids love them and confidence is half the battle. The heel strap (9/10) deserves a medal flip it back and suddenly your child enters “sport mode” like a video game character with boosted speed stats. The color options (10/10) are wild enough to satisfy even the most chaotic tiny human, from neon explosions to surprisingly normal shades. They’re ridiculously lightweight (10/10), which is great until your kid forgets they’re wearing them and tries to wear them to bed. Durability (9/10) is solid they can handle running, jumping, puddle stomping, and general kid nonsense without falling apart. And the independence factor (10/10) Huge. No laces, no struggle, no dramatic “I can’t do it!” moments just slip on and go. Crocs as a brand (9/10) clearly know their lane comfort over cool, and honestly, it works. Final Score: 9.2/10 They may not be pretty, but they’re practical, indestructible, and weirdly lovable like the chicken nuggets of footwear
