2015 Schneider Family Book Award Winner


Alan loves animals, but the great cat house at the Bronx Zoo makes him sad. Why are they all alone in empty cages? Are they being punished? More than anything, he wants to be their champion--their voice--but he stutters uncontrollably.

Except when he talks to animals...

Then he is fluent.

Follow the life of the man Time Magazine calls, "the Indiana Jones of wildlife conservation"as he searches for his voice and fulfills a promise to speak for animals, and people, who cannot speak for themselves. This real-life story with tender illustrations by Catia Chien explores truths not defined by the spoken word.

Very effective dermaplaning
I was really very impressed with these dermaplane razors. At first, I thought they were a little pricier than what I am used to, but after using them, I feel like they way more effective than others I have used. I thought they did a perfect job of removing all the post-menopause peach fuzzy I deal with. They left my skin smooth and did not leave any type of irritation on my skin. They come in two lengths, but I thought they were both equally easy to use. The handles are a nice, ergonomic shape that is easy to grasp. The blades stayed sharper longer than others. I will be ordering more of these and recommend them.

I like the design of these dermaplane razors
I have been using a different brand that folds in half for easy travel but the drawback was a small and unreliable handle. Not so for these razors – the straight handle allows for a more controlled and steady shave, I don’t have to worry about my razor folding up mid stroke. The blades themselves are a decent length and come in two different sizes. I have been using the larger ones for dermaplaning and touch ups whereas the smaller blades work great for shaping up eyebrows. These are not the highest quality razors, I mean not terrible but I did have one of the razor parts pop off of the handle unintentionally. I feel like $13.99 is on the higher end for 12 razors, I have seen similar blades for cheaper and larger quantity (although they didn’t have the two different sizes).

12 pack derma planing razors
I am a huge fan of derma planing and was quite intrigued by this set of razors. I was curious how they'd stack up to my tried and true disposable razors hat I've been using for years. First, they look and feel pretty nice - definitely nicer than my current ones. I do wish the handles were a lil more grippy because they get slippery very easily if they get wet or if you accidentally get oil/lotion on them. There isn't any indication of how many times you can use each razor or if they're only single use. There are two different sized razors included, but I'm not sure what the smaller ones are for - I wish they'd include some instructions! Currently priced at $13.89 for 12 razors, I find the price to be too high for what you receive. They are nice razors, yes, but they are not premium quality.

Effective dermaplaning wands
These razors work really well for removing my peach fuzz. I have a fuzzy chin and hair on my knuckles that’s hard to get off with a larger razor. These come in two sizes for precision dermaplaning. I apply some jojoba oil to my skin before dermaplaning and there is no irritation. I love the frosty translucent handles, they look clean and professional. There are twelve to a pack and they come in a little box to keep them all together. These are a great value for the quality.
