From the award-winning author of The Great Trouble comes a story of espionage, survival, and friendship during World War II. Bertie Bradshaw never set out to become a spy. He never imagined traipsing around war-torn London, solving ciphers, practicing surveillance, and searching for a traitor to the Allied forces. He certainly never expected that a strong-willed American girl named Eleanor would play Watson to his Holmes (or Holmes to his Watson, depending on who you ask). But when a young woman goes missing, leaving behind a coded notebook, Bertie is determined to solve the mystery. With the help of Eleanor and his friend David, a Jewish refugee--and, of course, his trusty pup, Little Roo--Bertie must decipher the notebook in time to stop a double agent from spilling the biggest secret of all to the Nazis. From the author of The Great Trouble, this suspenseful WWII adventure reminds us that times of war call for bravery, brains and teamwork from even the most unlikely heroes.Binding Type: Hardcover

Bedsure Wearable Blanket Hoodie for Women – Galaxy Printed Shaggy Sherpa Cozy Hood
I bought this wearable blanket about a year ago as a gift for my wife, but it wasn’t quite her preference. However, my son ended up using it regularly during the winter, and he absolutely loves it.
The material feels soft and cozy, the loose-fitting design is comfortable, and it’s easy to wear all day indoors when it’s cold. The galaxy print also adds a fun touch.
I would highly recommend this product for middle school or high school–aged kids who want something warm and comfortable to wear inside the house. Considering the quality and price, it’s definitely worth buying. It’s a yes for me 👍

Cat approved
Size: One Size, Style: Shark, Color: Sky Blue
Super soft and comfy. Much bigger than I thought for a "one size" item. It comes down below my knees and is big enough to warm my feet if I'm all curled up. It's so warm and inviting.
My cats also want to leave a positive review. They love curling up with me when I'm wearing it. They also love to make biscuits in it.

Blanket Hoodie is a Winter Warmth Go To.
Size: One Size, Style: Mushroom, Color: Olive Green
This is very large and comfy! I am so pleased. A lot of times "one size fits all" does not, but this blanket hoodie is really big and soft, the sleeves are long and bunch but the elastic cuffs are wide and will keep the long sleeves in check. In front are two deep large pockets (not the kangaroo pouch you might think). I will be ordering a couple more to leave in our camper. I highly recommend this blanket hoodie.

One of my favorite impulse buys
Size: One Size, Style: Mushroom, Color: Olive Green
I ADORE this sweater/hoodie/blankie thing! It’s so big and comfy, it’s like wearing a hug. The fleece is super soft, so I’m trying to avoid washing it for as long as possible so it can stay this soft forever. The only drawback is that it will shed on your clothing the first few times you wear it, so beware. The mushrooms are so cute.
