Enchanted Hunters: The Power of Stories in ChildhoodEver wondered why little children love listening to stories, why older ones get lost in certain books? In this enthralling work, Maria Tatar challenges many of our assumptions about childhood reading.

Ever wondered why little children love listening to stories, why older ones get lost in certain books? In this enthralling work, Maria Tatar challenges many of our assumptions about childhood reading. Much as our culture pays lip service to the importance of literature, we rarely examine the creative and cognitive benefits of reading from infancy through adolescence. By exploring how beauty and horror operated in C.S. Lewis s Chronicles of Narnia, Philip Pullman s His Dark Materials, J.K. Rowling s Harry Potter novels, and many other narratives, Tatar provides a delightful work for parents, teachers, and general readers, not just examining how and what children read but also showing through vivid examples how literature transports and transforms children with its intoxicating, captivating, and occasionally terrifying energy. In the tradition of Bruno Bettelheim s landmark The Uses of Enchantment, Tatar s book is not only a compelling journey into the world of childhood but a trip back for adult readers as well."Binding Type: Hardcover

Good product with quality-control issues
Color: Dark Grey, Size: 31W x 31L
I really like these jeans. I own them in almost every color they offer, but the manufacturing consistency is hit or miss. The latest pair I bought has a much smaller pocket opening than the others.
I also always order the same size (31×31), but when I got the red pair they were ridiculously long, more like a 31×36.
And the first khaki pair I bought had pockets about half as deep as the rest. My iPhone would literally stick out of them.
That said, for the price and overall look, they’re still a solid buy.

Mid jeans. Not bad but not amazing
The button is super wobbly and feels like itll break at any moment. The zipper quality also isnt great even when im not wearing them the zipper cant go above like 80% when I wear them itll slowly unzip if I twist or turn my body over a few hours.
There's also not a lot of room for your bits so maybe go a size up.
Other than that rhe material is comfy and has a bit of give so unlike other skinny jeans you dont feel restricted. The color is also super vibrant and lovely. Im not gonna return them unless the zipper breaks but idk if ill buy another pair if the button is like this.
