Number 1: She lives in a motel, not a big house. Every day, while her immigrant parents clean the rooms, ten-year-old Mia manages the front desk of the Calivista Motel and tends to its guests. Number 2: Her parents hide immigrants. And if the mean motel owner, Mr. Yao, finds out they've been letting them stay in the empty rooms for free, the Tangs will be doomed. Number 3: She wants to be a writer. But how can she when her mom thinks she should stick to math because English is not her first language? It will take all of Mia's courage, kindness, and hard work to get through this year.

It has many conveniences
Color: White, Size: 42 inches, Color: White, Size: 42 inches
I like that it detects temperature and determines what fan speed it should be on to control temperature in the room. Its made a notable difference in my warmest room of the house this summer. Its nice and quiet. You can also adjust the blades up or down if you want to redirect the air flow much like in a vehicle. I got the taller fan for the bigger living space i have and it’s comfortable. I feel the air right away. It’s bot like a pedestal fan. This is much more giving to the entire body rather than just the face. It’s also not as intrusive as a pedestal fan. It fits in smaller spaces. It doesn’t block the view like a pedestal fan

Liked this so much that I purchased a second one for another room
Color: White, Size: 36 inches
I liked this fan so much that I purchased a second one for another room. Works well, has 5 different speeds, several functions and setting. Has a remote control and a space on the fan that holds the remote. I was initially torn between this fan and another brand, but chose this one because it can be easily taken apart for cleaning. Also it is a very good value for the cost. It is not silent, but it is not loud at all. The fan is very sturdy and easy to assemble. The only assembly is a giant plastic nut on the bottom that holds the stand in place. IMO if you choose this fan, you will not be disappointed.

Most comfortable pillows for my back
I have a really bad back along with sciatica so I use these pillows on my recliner chair, one for my back and one under my bottom. They make all the difference in the world. They are soft and squishy yet still offer support. They are a great value for sure. This blue color was about half the price of other colors with was fine with me because I put washable covers on them anyway. I frequently fall asleep on them. My dog loves when they accidentally fall on the floor because he curls up on them and falls asleep. He finds them very comfortable. I can't say enough good about these. They would be great on a bed or couch too or even as a floor cushion. They are high quality, well made pillows.
