"Theroux is at his best when he tells people's] stories, happy and sad . . . Theroux's great mission had always been to transport us beyond that reading chair, to challenge himself--and thus, to challenge us." -- Boston Globe Paul Theroux's best-selling Dark Star Safari chronicled his epic overland voyage from Cairo to Cape Town, providing an insider's look at modern Africa. Now, with The Last Train to Zona Verde, he returns to discover how both he and Africa have changed in the ensuing years. Traveling alone, Theroux sets out from Cape Town, going north through South Africa, Namibia, then into Angola, encountering a world increasingly removed from tourists' itineraries and the hopes of postcolonial independence movements. After covering nearly 2,500 arduous miles, he cuts short his journey, a decision he chronicles with unsparing honesty in a chapter titled "What Am I Doing Here?" Vivid, witty, and beautifully evocative, The Last Train to Zona Verde is a fitting final African adventure from the writer whose gimlet eye and effortless prose have brought the world to generations of readers. "Everything is under scrutiny in Paul Theroux's latest travel book--not just the people, landscapes and sociopolitical realities of the countries he visits, but his own motivations for going where he goes . . . His readers can only be grateful." -- Seattle Times "If this book is proof, age has not slowed Theroux or encouraged him to rest on his achievements . . . Gutsy, alert to Africa's struggles, its injustices and history." -- San Francisco ChronicleBinding Type: Paperback

You've Found Your Daughter's Match! Superior Sneakers for Girls!
Size: 1 Little Kid, Color: Fuchsia, Size: 1 Little Kid, Color: Fuchsia
Super-cute, stylish sneakers meet cushiony comfort at a very reasonable price. These sneakers have it all!
The bed and sole of these sneakers provide significant shock-absorption making them ideal for serious athletics or a long day out at the theme park. Our daughter went from a Keds-type sneaker to these and she was beaming 😁!
In addition to their comfort and ppearance is the fact that they fasten and unfasten with ease. Any child can put them on and take them off. The laces stretch and the Velcro is highly adjustable. Everything has been constructed with integrity.
They are, also, washable so you can continue to maintain their crisp, vibrant colors and keep them looking new.
They fit true-to-size and can accodimate somewhat wide feet as well.
There are only positive things to say about these 5+ stars!

Nice to have a wider shoe! Nice color and seems to be good quality so far!
The fit ran a little bit small compared to Nike brand. Size chart at a shoe store I felt he needed a 1.5 (with room to grow still), ended up ordering a 2.5 which may have been a tiny big but works for his feet to grow. Love that it's wider. Cute color

Cute, durable kids' shoe at a great value
Size: 11.5 Big Kid, Color: Navy/Citron
These worked out great for our 5 year old with flat feet - he absolutely loves them, says they are very comfortable and help him "run FAST!" The colors look super cute, I'm very pleased with the durability over several months (particularly, the hook & loop closure has held up better than other brands we've tried...), and they seem to offer great support while not being too heavy. Highly recommend, and will buy again.

Durable Shoes
Size: 3.5 Little Kid, Color: Blue/Black
Most brands have scuffed toe pads or poor quality Velcro. My boys go through 3-4 pairs of shoes a year. Our family loves saucony for the quality, comfort and durability.

Great shoes
Great shoes, but definitely designed for narrow feet! if your child has wide feet,i recommend choosing a different style as these run very, very narrow.
