From two-time Newbery medalist and living legend Lois Lowry comes a moving account of the lives lost in two of WWII's most infamous events: Pearl Harbor and Hiroshima. With evocative black-and-white illustrations by SCBWI Golden Kite Award winner Kenard Pak.

Lois Lowry looks back at history through a personal lens as she draws from her own memories as a child in Hawaii and Japan, as well as from historical research, in this stunning work in verse for young readers.

On the Horizon tells the story of people whose lives were lost or forever altered by the twin tragedies of Pearl Harbor and Hiroshima. Based on the lives of soldiers at Pearl Harbor and civilians in Hiroshima, On the Horizon contemplates humanity and war through verse that sings with pain, truth, and the importance of bridging cultural divides. This masterful work emphasizes empathy and understanding in search of commonality and friendship, vital lessons for students as well as citizens of today's world. Kenard Pak's stunning illustrations depict real-life people, places, and events, making for an incredibly vivid return to our collective past.

In turns haunting, heartbreaking, and uplifting, On the Horizon will remind readers of the horrors and heroism in our past, as well as offer hope for our future.

Saved my sanity
Size: Small: 24" x 24"
I thought I knew everything about cats, but when my 14 year old cat stopped using the litter box, I could not fix it. I did persuade her to start using puppy pads but the problem was she would pee toward the edge and it always got on the floor. Or, defying everything I know about reality, she would find a way to pee UNDER the puppy pad. I asked ChatGPT for advice and it recommended these. They fixed the problem by 80% and I'll take it! These mats help a ton. She still gets some pee on the floor, but it's not the huge problem it used to be. The edge on the mat keeps it contained. And enzymatic cleaner works its magic on the floor. The clips that go on the edges are kinda fragile, but that's why they give you extras.

It doesn’t stop leaks from the pee pad.
Size: X-Large: 28" x 34"
I’m trying to figure out how not to have leaks occasionally. I’m going to call the company to see if there’s something I should be doing.

Great toy to play fetch with the dogs.
Color: Black/White, Size: Large
These balls are a great dog toy to play fetch with your dogs. This not the first ball I have gotten for the dogs. Just the right size and weight for medium sized dogs. I have less concerns about them possibly choking on these soccer balls versus tennis balls. So I can leave them out for them to play with. The are easy to inflate using the included pump. My only concern is the durability of the straps as my dogs have almost torn off one the straps of the previous ball I purchased.
