Description
The Secret SubwayFrom an acclaimed author and a New York Times Best Illustrated artist comes the fascinating, little known and true story of New York City's first subway. New York City in the 1860s was a mess: crowded, disgusting, filled with garbage. You see, way back in 1860, there were no subways, just cobblestone streets. That is, until Alfred Ely Beach had the idea for a fan powered train that would travel underground. On February 26, 1870, after fifty eight days
From an acclaimed author and a New York Times Best Illustrated artist comes the fascinating, little-known--and true --story of New York City's first subway. New York City in the 1860s was a mess: crowded, disgusting, filled with garbage. You see, way back in 1860, there were no subways, just cobblestone streets. That is, until Alfred Ely Beach had the idea for a fan-powered train that would travel underground. On February 26, 1870, after fifty-eight days of drilling and painting and plastering, Beach unveiled his masterpiece--and throngs of visitors took turns swooshing down the track. The Secret Subway will wow readers, just as Beach's underground train wowed riders over a century ago. A New York Public Library Best Book for Kids, 2016Binding Type: Hardcover

They survive the night well
Pattern Name: classic
Survived through pouring rain and snow for 10 hours at red rocks. Plus they’re all pretty cute.

Completes my festival looks and doesn’t fall off
Pattern Name: classic
Definitely stayed stuck on my face even after I partied a little too hard (ifkwim), and I sweat a lot too! If it does peel off at the edges a little, eyelash glue is a best solution!

Adorable

These were perfect for the girls night out, our last night of camp. Everyone wanted to know where we got them. Not itchy or reactive to sensitive skin.

Great Treat
Flavor Name: Chicken Chips, Size: 1 Pound (Pack of 1)
These are very thin and apparently very delicious as all four of my dogs LOVE them!
I have very sensitive dogs that are able to digest this treat with no difficulty. The only thing I have to mention is this: if your dog is small, break the chip in half or quarters to avoid any choking. Great product!
