Five refugees recount their courageous journeys to America -- and the unimaginable struggles that led them to flee their homelands -- in a powerful work from the author of Beyond Magenta and We Are Here to Stay. "From 1984, when I was born, until July 16, 2017, when I arrived in the United States, I never lived in a place where there was no war." -- Fraidoon An Iraqi woman who survived capture by ISIS. A Sudanese teen growing up in civil war and famine. An Afghan interpreter for the U.S. Army living under threat of a fatwa. They are among the five refugees who share their stories in award-winning author and photographer Susan Kuklin's latest masterfully crafted narrative. The five, originally from Afghanistan, Myanmar, South Sudan, Iraq, and Burundi, give gripping first-person testimonies about what it is like to flee war, face violent threats, grow up in a refugee camp, be sold into slavery, and resettle in America. Illustrated with full-color photographs of the refugees' new lives in Nebraska, this work is essential reading for understanding the devastating impact of war and persecution -- and the power of resilience, optimism, and the will to survive. Included in the end matter are chapter notes, information on resettlement and U.S. citizenship, historical time lines of war and political strife in the refugees' countries of origin, resources for further reading, and an index.Binding Type: Hardcover

Cat playground
Color: Black, Size: 35 Inch, Style: 3 Pack, Color: Black, Size: 35 Inch, Style: 3 Pack
Easy to install. Sturdy enough for 2 large rambunctious kitties to play on and look very nice. I was working on a vertical play space for the cats and since these come in many sizes it worked great. I did add grip tape to some.

Not the best quality
Color: Rustic Brown, Size: 35 Inch, Style: 2 Pack, Color: Rustic Brown, Size: 35 Inch, Style: 2 Pack
The shelving unit was not as I had expected. It arrived damaged. The damage is on the under side though. They are hollow and not hardwood as I had expected. Save your money if you want something of good quality. These are like 3 pieces of pressed wood glued together. They are space saving and look great in my space. The mounting hardware it comes with was plenty enough to hang these but make sure you hang them in the studs if at all possible. Assembly was simple. It does come with a micro level. Which a kid or pet could accidentally swallow. It’s like pill capsule sized so just be careful when opening the package.

Loving these
Color: Wooden Black
Two (Med and Large) will safely hold a larger electric power strip. The Small is on my desk holding odd items and bits that should be stored upright. They're so simple to use too! I love the colored Velcro strips that come with them and the plastic cable guides. I honestly didn't know they were included so that was a BONUS! It definitely helped sort my cables and power cords for my work station as well as my crafting station. Keeping them safely out of the way means my robot vacuum can run without any complications. The wood tops actually blend with the floors making them less visible. If I needed more I would certainly get more! I may buy more for gifting.

No More Messy Looking Cords Everywhere
Color: Wooden Black
These are such a great find! My office, bedroom and living room look so much cleaner now! The sizes were just right to meet our needs. The colors matched our decor and the cords no longer stick out like a sore thumb. It was easy to get the power strip and the cords organized inside the boxes and using these is just the perfect solution to a messy problem. Highly recommended!

Hides the cords well
Color: Wooden Black
Very subtle and hides the cords and surge protector well. They look appealing and blend in with other items well allowing them to not stand out. I wish the lid snapped on, though. Depending on the cords, it sometimes sticks up. But is an easy fix.
