A timely and beautiful look at America's rich history of immigration and diversity, from Faith Ringgold, the Coretta Scott King and Caldecot Honor winning creator of Tar BeachFrom the Native Americans who first called this land their home, to the millions of people who have flocked to its shores ever since, America is a country rich in diversity. Some of our ancestors were driven by dreams and hope. Others came in chains, or were escaping poverty or persecution. No matter what brought them here, each person embodied a unique gift--their art and music, their determination and grit, their stories and their culture. And together they forever shaped the country we all call home. Vividly expressed in Faith Ringgold's sumptuous colors and patterns, We Came to America is an ode to every American who came before us, and a tribute to each child who will carry its proud message of diversity into our nation's future.
PRAISE FOR WE CAME TO AMERICA **A 2017 Notable Social Studies Trade Book for Young People** "As Americans wrestle with the moral and legal aspects of immigration, Ringgold offers a reminder of the country's multifaceted lineage--and of the beauty to be discovered at cultural crossroads.... The simplicity of Ringgold's text, combined with the captivating designs, makes this a compelling, must-have narrative for a wide audience."
-School Library Journal, starred review
"Using a broad brush and folk style familiar from her story quilts, Ringgold pictures families of diverse heritage... her powerful voice emphasizes unity and mutual appreciation." -Publishers Weekly
" A] timely look at the diverse makeup and backgrounds of the American people." -Booklist

Lightweight, doesn't run into my eyes
Style: SPF 30, Size: 5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I really like this as an everyday sunscreen and for outdoor sports. It looks thick compared to the watery Kinesys (my other go-to sunscreen), but the Eucerin goes on light and stays put. Unlike Kinesys, it doesn't get into my eyes by the afternoon. I still prefer the K. brand for easy application to my hairy arms and legs, but the Eucerin 30 is perfect for face and neck. I also tried the SPF 50 version of this, and the spray-can version, but they don't go on very well, so I'm returning to this one.

Great for Sensitive Skin
Style: SPF 30, Size: 5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I've been using greasy white, mineral sunscreens for years because the chemical sunscreens all made me break out in a rash--until I tried this one. It dries clear, is non-greasy, and goes on well. Note the relatively few inactive ingredients compared to other chemical sunscreens. Whatever ingredient irritated my skin is not in this one and I love it!

Expired
Style: SPF 30, Size: 5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: SPF 30, Size: 5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I just received this item which was ordered specifically 17th of December and I received it on December 20th. I was excited and didn't bother to read the reviews and wish I had. To begin the expiration is December 2024, therefore this product I just received is basically useless. Secondly to my eye the product came battered, there seem to be some marks on the bottle and if I have to be honest to me looks as if it has been used. Given the dangers potential dangers of using expired skin product I will not be using this, and the worst thing of all, this item is not returnable, going to figure out if I can get a refund at least.

Expires in only 3 months so that's on seller "The MMC." Otherwise the sunscreen itself is great.
Style: SPF 30, Size: 5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I split the difference on the rating: I would give only 1 star for seller "The MMC" because as others have experienced there is little time left before the product I received expires (3 months). I expect that to really matter on a product where you are relying on the strength of the ingredients to protect your skin. Otherwise I'd give a 5 rating for the sunscreen itself.
I tried 3 different brands of mineral sunscreens in the last few years because I had become concerned about loading up my skin with chemicals. They were all a little "white hazy" but I am fair-skinned so once they were on about 20 minutes they weren't very noticeable. But I had to sit on a towel in my car to protect my upholstery and they all left faint white streaks on the armrests and window sills, and reapplying them later in the day was a pain when I had to worry about getting them on my clothes. The last straw came when Consumer Reports published their research showing very poor scores for all the mineral sunscreens they tested. So I reluctantly switched back to a chemical sunscreen and after some research I settled on this one - Eucerin Sun Advanced Hydration SPF 30. It fared decently in Consumer Reports ratings and the ingredients are rated "low hazard" by the Environmental Working Group. It is definitely a thinner lotion than most sunscreens but I've gotten used to it and now consider it a plus -- it's very quick and easy to apply and it absorbs fast. And it doesn't make a mess on my clothes when I reapply it. Some people have said that it's a little shiny on the skin and that's true. I should note that I use a different sunscreen just for my face and neck and I don't wear makeup anymore so that's not a factor for me. As far as sun protection goes, which is kind of the point, I spent over a week hiking in five national parks in the Utah sun at high altitude this past June and I did not get even a whisper of sunburn despite being fair-skinned. So the product did its job.

Easy application - absorbs easily
Style: SPF 30, Size: 5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
The sunscreen is quite thin and liquidy which made applying it easy and quick.
Spent 2 hours per day for several days playing pickleball in full, constant sun and not a tinge of pink on my skin.
I highly recommend this product!
