In the summer of 1984, the war in Vietnam comes home to Samantha Hughes, whose father was killed there before she was born. All she has is a picture of him as a young soldier, and as Sam begins to grapple with the challenges of her own adolescent years, she also finds herself confronting the desire and need to know more about her father and what happened to him and the other American soldiers who served in Vietnam.
Today's students will relate to Sam and her desire to leave her small town for the bigger world versus the pull of a loving boyfriend and family. Her need to confront the controversies and horrors of war and its impact on soldiers and the families they leave behind makes In Country a meaningful book for the current generation of students.

Lightweight moisturizer, worth it.
Love it! Its lightweight and silky. Makes my skin feel hydrated and smooth. I apply after cleansing my face..can't say if it actually provides 80hr moisture. So far so good. Would repurchase.

This is a pretty good moisturizer, im not sure if this gave me bumps on my face or it’s just a breakout, perhaps from one of my makeup brushes. Overall very moisturizing, doesn’t really have a sent, it is a little bit thick but not super thick.

I really love this moisturizer, I started using a retinal and since i usually dont ease into it, my face does get dry and flaky. I was using a different one and it would work for a little while then i would feel dry a while after. Thayers actually feels like it kept my face moisturized even the next morning. It took a couple days to feel it best because my face was already dry from the retinal, but after once my skin soaked it all in it felt great. Its thin, soft and light, not heavy. No scent other than the normal unscented lotion smell. I use it day and night. 14 dollars was questionable, but its so worth it.

I will never stop using this product!
I can't say enough about this product. I have been using it for years. I do not like heavy creams or the feeling of it on my skin. This is perfect for me. It's lightweight and very hydrating. I use day and night. I technically use it twice, I use it as my moisturizer then after my sunscreen I will mix a small amount of it into my foundation....to thin it out a bit. It leaves my skin glowing. I LOVE Thayers products.
FYI: I have mature, sensitive, dry skin.
