Awarded the Caldecott Medal in 1941, They Were Strong and Good is a classic book that follows the path of one family's journey through American history. Robert Lawson introduces us to his forefathers and with them we brave Caribbean storms, travel to the wharf markets of New York, and fight in the Civil War. Amidst these adventures Lawson's grandparents meet, marry, and raise a family, and later his parents follow the same cycle of life. But this book is more than just the story of one family, it's a social history of our country. It reminds us to be proud of our ancestors--who they were, what they did, and the effect that they had on the nation we live in today. None of them were great or famous, but they were strong and good. They worked hard and had many children. They all helped to make the United States the great nation that it now is. Let us be proud of them and guard well the heritage they have left us.Binding Type: Hardcover

Perfect size for me
Color: Light Color Series, Style: Waffle Pattern, Color: Light Color Series, Style: Waffle Pattern
Washed the cloths before use with just detergent. Pretty much stayed it shape and fluffy texture. It lathers well with any soap and drys fast. Love the texture size more than the exfoliating size. Texture side is great for sensitive face cleaning. The exfoliating side did soften after repeated use. I feel it is still little to rough for the face, but great for the body.

Great quality
Color: Light Color Series, Style: Waffle Pattern
These are a bit oversized compared to regular washcloths but that makes it easier when exfoliating your own back.
The one side is soft and plush. They are easy to wring out.
They wash up nicely. I use a linen bag when washing them but it's not necessary.
