A Notable Social Studies Trade Book for Young People 2018


Age range 10+


When 14-year-old Florence Kelly and 11-year-old Russell Park left their hometowns for summer vacations in Europe in 1939, they considered themselves awfully lucky. Many of their friends’ families were struggling during the Great Depression and couldn’t afford fancy trips. But the young pair would soon face life-threatening troubles of their own as it became clear German dictator Adolf Hitler was intent on invading neighboring countries.


With tensions high, Florence, Russell, and their families cut their holidays short as many Americans scrambled to book passage back to the States. Safely aboard the luxurious passenger liner the S.S. Athenia, travelers settled in and breathed a sigh of relief. Surely, it was believed, the sleek, menacing German U-boats lurking in the Atlantic Ocean would never attack a passenger ship...would they?


Torpedoed! vividly re-creates the events surrounding the attack on the Athenia, the first ship lost in the battle of the Atlantic. Through firsthand accounts, interviews with survivors, and powerful photos, award-winning author Cheryl Mullenbach brings to life the prewar environment in America and Europe, the anxious days leading up to the surprise attack, the frantic rush to escape the sinking ship, and the long, terrifying night that Russell, Florence, and others spent in churning lifeboats battling the elements and imagining the worst.

It Works!
Size: 16 Ounce (Pack of 1), Style: SPF 50
My favorite sunscreen. Smells incredible. Reminds me of the beach every time I use it. Which is daily. Summers are brutal in the south and I don’t get paid enough for a farmers tan. Alba has saved me. I’m hooked on it. Also the price isn’t horrible either. Sunscreen can be so dang expensive. You get your moneys worth.

Defective item
Size: 16 Ounce (Pack of 1), Style: SPF 50
I requested a refund or replacement as one of the two bottles that arrived. Has an issue with spraying. When I put it in the unlocked position, it does not spray I requested from the seller, but the seller wants to meet to provide proof and requesting me to upload a video. When I explained the defect, they told me to move it to unlocked position. I buy this sunscreen all the time for my kids so I’m aware of how to lock and unlock a sunscreen Unfortunately through buyer/seller messaging you’re unable to leave a video so I will unfortunately have to leave a review here. I hope the seller will resolve this defective item.

Could double as a sun safe Uruk-hai cosplay
Size: 5 Ounce (Pack of 1), Style: SPF 50+
This sunscreen is amazing. Was in the sun off and on all day. One thing though. Make sure you apply with a mirror in front of you or you may end up walking out the door looking like a Uruk-hai from LOTR. I was in an allfire, trying to get to the fun part of my day, and rushed putting it on. Just as I was about to leave the hotel room I caught myself in the mirror. Complete white hand print on my face where I hadn't rubbed it in well enough. So yeah, works amazing, no sunburn, and needs rubbed in well. LOL

The best sunscreen on the market
Size: 5 Ounce (Pack of 1), Style: SPF 50+
The best sunscreen I've ever used. I burn super easy, just 30 min outside without protection and I'll be a lobster the next day. I can apply this once in the morning and be protected all day. Pros: - Doesn't wear off quickly - Haven't had a single sunburn since I started using it - Doesn't have a strong chemical smell - A little goes a long way - Resists sweat well Cons: - Has a white cast so you really have to rub it in - It doesn't sit light, you can definitely feel it on your skin I would recommend this to anyone and everyone looking for sunscreen.
