A charming and significant story set prior to the Civil Rights Movement about a boy who finds a way to challenge segregation laws. Frank has always been obsessed with elephants. He loves their hosepipe trunks, tree stump feet, and swish-swish tails. So when Miss Fancy, the elephant, retires from the circus and moves two blocks from his house to Avondale Park, he's over the moon Frank really wants to pet her. But Avondale Park is just for white people, so Frank is not allowed to see Miss Fancy. Frank is heartbroken but he doesn't give up: instead he makes a plan Frank writes to the City Council so his church can host a picnic in the park, and he can finally meet Miss Fancy. All of his neighbors sign the letter, but when some protest, the picnic is cancelled and Frank is heartbroken all over again. Then Miss Fancy escapes the zoo, and it's up to Frank to find her before she gets hurt.Binding Type: Hardcover

Impressed
Size: XX-Large, Color: Black
I’ll be honest, I didn’t have the highest expectations for this jacket. However, I very pleasantly surprised by the fit and quality. The jacket fit very well and just as I expected. The quality was even more impressive with the weight and overall quality of the denim. For the the price, this jacket definitely hits all the marks. I was able to style it perfectly with a hoodie.

A timeless classic at a great price
Size: X-Large, Color: Black, Size: X-Large, Color: Black
This is honestly a very well-made denim jacket, with all the classic features found on a Type III Trucker Jacket: 2 breast pockets, 2 side pockets, 2 inner pockets. The material feels very comfortable and thick and strong at the same time. A multi purpose jacket that will be your perfect companion for almost all seasons in almost all situations. I took an XL size because I wanted to wear a sweatshirt under it. I weigh 198 pounds and am 5.7 tall. I will probably buy another one in L size for a tighter fit.
