The story of one family's journey north during the Great Migration starts with a little girl in South Carolina who finds a rope under a tree one summer. She has no idea the rope will become part of her family's history. But for three generations, that rope is passed down, used for everything from jump rope games to tying suitcases onto a car for the big move north to New York City, and even for a family reunion where that first little girl is now a grandmother. Newbery Honor-winning author Jacqueline Woodson and Coretta Scott King Award-winning illustrator James Ransome use the rope to frame a thoughtful and moving story as readers follow the little girl's journey. During the time of the Great Migration, millions of African American families relocated from the South, seeking better opportunities. With grace and poignancy, Woodson's lilting storytelling and Ransome's masterful oil paintings of country and city life tell a rich story of a family adapting to change as they hold on to the past and embrace the future.Binding Type: Hardcover

Nice and light with superior softness!
Size: Large, Color: Black
Nice soft material and fits well. I also like the lightweight feel. Will most likely buy other colors in this item.

Nice shirt, but sizing isn’t ideal for big and tall builds
Size: XX-Large Tall, Color: Black
The shirt itself is decent quality and looks good, but the fit wasn’t great for me. If you’re a big and tall guy, this may not be the best option.
The material has some stretch and feels comfortable, but the overall cut runs smaller and doesn’t offer much room in the shoulders or torso. It works better for slimmer or more standard builds.
If the sizing works for you, it’s a nice-looking shirt. Just be aware that it’s not very forgiving in the fit if you need extra room.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Durable Protection That Holds Up in Any Weather
Size: 65 inch, Color: Black
This grill cover is exactly what I needed. The material feels thick and heavy-duty, and it holds up great against sun, wind, and rain. The waterproof design really works—my grill stays completely dry. I also love the secure fit with the hook-and-loop straps; it doesn’t blow off in strong winds. No fading so far either. Great quality and a solid investment to protect your grill!

Good quality, great price
Size: 72 Inch, Color: Black, Size: 72 Inch, Color: Black
Lovely cover and very well-made. I’m not using it for a grill. I am using it for my beach cruiser bike. I love the fact that it’s reflective fabric on the inside. It fits very well and it’s very lightweight and well maneuverable compared to the thicker fabrics that are sold out there. I highly recommend this item. I’ve only had it for a couple weeks, but so far very waterproof and doing the job. Easy to put on and remove.

Good quality, water resistant
Size: 52 inch, Color: Black
Feels thinner than the one I had before this which was the same company and model. Still good quality and value for the money. Fits well and looks good. Is water resistant and black is the true color. We’ll see how sturdy it is over the years.
