A new, feminist translation of Beowulf by the author of the much-buzzed-about novel The Mere Wife
Brash and belligerent, lunatic and envigorating, with passages of sublime poetry punctuated by obscenities and social-media shorthand. --Ruth Franklin, The New Yorker The author of the crazy-cool Beowulf-inspired novel The Mere Wife tackles the Old English epic poem with a fierce new feminist translation that radically recontextualizes the tale.--Barbara VanDenburgh, USA Today Nearly twenty years after Seamus Heaney's translation of Beowulf--and fifty years after the translation that continues to torment high-school students around the world--there is a radical new verse translation of the epic poem by Maria Dahvana Headley, which brings to light elements that have never before been translated into English, recontextualizing the binary narrative of monsters and heroes into a tale in which the two categories often entwine, justice is rarely served, and dragons live among us. A man seeks to prove himself as a hero. A monster seeks silence in his territory. A warrior seeks to avenge her murdered son. A dragon ends it all. The familiar elements of the epic poem are seen with a novelist's eye toward gender, genre, and history--Beowulf has always been a tale of entitlement and encroachment, powerful men seeking to become more powerful, and one woman seeking justice for her child, but this version brings new context to an old story. While crafting her contemporary adaptation of Beowulf, Headley unearthed significant shifts lost over centuries of translation.Binding Type: Paperback

Really good!
Size: 0.5 Ounce (Pack of 1)
My daughter (11 yrs) used to hate putting any sunscreens on her face as she'd find them stikcy. But this one is working very well for her and she's now using it without any concerns for stickiness. I'd buy again.

Very good purchase
Size: 0.5 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I purchased the Banana Boat Sport Kids Sunscreen Stick SPF 50 (0.5 oz) for my child, and it has been very convenient to use.
The stick format makes application quick and mess-free, which is especially helpful when applying sunscreen on a busy child. It glides on smoothly and provides good coverage without feeling overly greasy or heavy on the skin.
I like that it is travel-sized, making it easy to carry in a bag or keep on hand for outdoor activities, school events, or vacations. The SPF 50 protection gives me peace of mind for extended time in the sun.
It also seems gentle on the skin, and my child tolerates it well without irritation. The compact size makes it great for reapplying throughout the day as needed.
Overall, this is a very practical and effective sunscreen option for kids. I would definitely recommend it for parents looking for an easy, portable, and reliable sun protection product.

So Much Easier Than Lotion Sunscreen
Size: 0.5 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I bought this mainly because getting regular sunscreen on my kid turns into a full argument every single time. This stick version made things way easier. I can swipe it on quickly without getting sunscreen all over my hands or in my child’s eyes. We used it outside for soccer practice and park days, and I liked how it stayed on even with sweating and running around. It also fits easily in my bag, so I keep taking it with us instead of forgetting sunscreen at home. Honestly one of those products I didn’t expect to care about this much, but now I’m glad I ordered it.

Easy to use
Size: 0.5 Ounce (Pack of 1)
This Banana Boat Sport Kids Sunscreen Stick is super easy to apply, especially for little hands. Provides good sun protection and the travel size is convenient. Would be perfect if it were a bit smoother on the skin, but overall very practical.

Such a great product that my child can apply it themselves and no more eyes burning
Size: 0.5 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I originally purchased this because I needed something that was about 5$ to make my order eligible for same day shipping.
Well I'm so happy I ordered this because my 7 year old is doing swim lessons with school and this is the first sunscreen that she can actually apply by herself and doesn't burn her eyes or make her skin cold in the morning. We will be switching over to this now and I'll be purchasing another one for her for summer camp! It's so good that it doesn't have aerosol which they say is not good for us.
