Gidwitz is a masterful storyteller." --Matt de la Pe a, Newbery Medalist and New York Times bestselling author "What Gidwitz accomplishes here is staggering." --New York Times Book Review Includes a detailed historical note and bibliography
1242. On a dark night, travelers from across France cross paths at an inn and begin to tell stories of three children. Their adventures take them on a chase through France: they are taken captive by knights, sit alongside a king, and save the land from a farting dragon. On the run to escape prejudice and persecution and save precious and holy texts from being burned, their quest drives them forward to a final showdown at Mont Saint-Michel, where all will come to question if these children can perform the miracles of saints. Join William, an oblate on a mission from his monastery; Jacob, a Jewish boy who has fled his burning village; and Jeanne, a peasant girl who hides her prophetic visions. They are accompanied by Jeanne's loyal greyhound, Gwenforte . . . recently brought back from the dead. Told in multiple voices, in a style reminiscent of The Canterbury Tales, our narrator collects their stories and the saga of these three unlikely allies begins to come together. Beloved bestselling author Adam Gidwitz makes his long awaited return with his first new world since his hilarious and critically acclaimed Grimm series. Featuring manuscript illuminations throughout by illustrator Hatem Aly and filled with Adam's trademark style and humor, The Inquisitor's Tale is bold storytelling that's richly researched and adventure-packed. "It's no surprise that Gidwitz's latest book has been likened to The Canterbury Tales, considering its central story is told by multiple storytellers. As each narrator fills in what happens next in the story of the three children and their potentially holy dog, their tales get not only more fantastical but also more puzzling and addictive. However, the gradual intricacy of the story that is not Gidwitz's big accomplishment. Rather it is the complex themes (xenophobia, zealotry, censorship etc.) he is able to bring up while still maintaining a light tone, thus giving readers a chance to come to conclusions themselves. (Also, there is a farting dragon.)"--Entertainment Weekly, "Best MG Books of 2016 "Puckish, learned, serendipitous . . . Sparkling medieval adventure." --Wall Street Journal
★ "Gidwitz strikes literary gold with this mirthful and compulsively readable adventure story. . . . A masterpiece of storytelling that is addictive and engrossing." --Kirkus, starred review ★ "A well-researched and rambunctiously entertaining story that has as much to say about the present as it does the past." --Publishers Weekly, starred review ★ "Gidwitz proves himself a nimble storyteller as he weaves history, excitement, and multiple narrative threads into a taut, inspired adventure." --Booklist, starred review ★ "Scatological humor, serious matter, colloquial present-day language, the ideal of diversity and mutual understanding--this has it all." --The Horn Book, starred review ★ "I have never read a book like this. It's weird, and unfamiliar, and religious, and irreligious, and more fun than it has any right to be. . . . Gidwitz is on fire here, making medieval history feel fresh and current." --School Library Journal, starred review

Good lotion
Size: 20.3 Fl Oz (Pack of 3)
Vaseline intensive care just makes really good lotion. I’ve never been steered wrong by them. And getting these on clearance was so good. I’m still on my first bottle, but I don’t put it on every day. Maybe twice a week. So the bottle has lasted seven months so far and there’s still a quarter of the bottle left. That means I have at least two years worth of lotion for $10. Can’t beat that. And it’s a good lotion to boot. The fragrance isn’t too strong. It absorbs really quickly and keeps your skin soft. The pump works great. I haven’t gotten any clogs or anything yet. Though, I usually don’t have those if I’m using it as often as I have been. Highly recommend would buy again… in a couple years.

Decent lotion, good for not so dry climate.
Size: 20.3 Fl Oz (Pack of 3), Size: 20.3 Fl Oz (Pack of 3)
This lotion smells amazing. I usually don’t go for scented lotion but I’m a sucker for sweet chocolate-y scents. This lotion smells like brownies. It’s not particularly mild so make sure you’re okay with it.
It’s not a thick lotion in my book, has a yogurt consistency. You can feel the moisturizing effect as soon as you put this lotion on. It is a comforting lotion without being sticky or heavy, easy to absorb into skin.
Although very nice and comfortable feeling when putting on, it doesn’t last through the next day in Colorado winter. I have to use it one more time on my legs during the day otherwise I get itchy. I apply this lotion at night after shower and I don’t shower put lotion on the next morning. If you do shower and lotion up in the morning then this might be good enough for a whole day. I’m used to applying lotions on damp skin but this lotion is very easy to spread, feels nice going on my dry legs as well.
I love using it after washing my hands. I apply lotion every time I wash my hands and this lotion works great in that regard. It doesn’t feel greasy or particularly slippery when I wash my hands again either.
I might try another lotion for winter once I finish these bottles but this is definitely a solid product, and I can see myself repurchasing in the future.

My Favourite Body Lotion
Size: 20.3 Fl Oz (Pack of 3)
I love this lotion so much. It's not greasy, and very moisturizing. The fragrance is amazing and smells delicious ! Unfortunately 2 out of 3 of the bottles had broken pumps when I tried to open them. I wish there were more for the price, so I switched to the Amazon Basics version. Is good for all skin types! The amount in the bottle is decent.

Smooth and Radiant
Size: 20.3 Fl Oz (Pack of 3)
I have been using the Vaseline Intensive Care Cocoa Radiant Lotion for a while now, and it is easily my favorite for keeping my skin hydrated. This 3 count pack is a fantastic value for anyone who wants to maintain a consistent glow without constantly running to the store.
Why This is My Go To:
Deep Hydration: The combination of Pure Cocoa Butter and Ultra Hydrating Lipids really works. It penetrates deep to heal dry skin rather than just sitting on top.
The Perfect Glow: It gives my skin a natural, radiant finish that looks healthy. It’s perfect for summer or whenever I want my skin to look its best.
No Greasy Residue: One of the best parts is how quickly it absorbs. I can apply it and get dressed immediately without feeling sticky or oily.
Amazing Scent: The cocoa fragrance is warm and comforting. It smells high quality and lingers just enough to be pleasant throughout the day.
Final Verdict:
If you are looking for a reliable, everyday lotion that actually delivers on its promise of smooth, vibrant skin, this is it. The 20.3 Oz pump bottles are super convenient for daily use, and the formula is a lifesaver for dry skin.

Perfect for sensitive skin
Size: 1.3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I have insanely sensitive, blemish prone skin and have been struggling to find skincare products that don’t irritate my skin. This was recommended to me by my dermatology office and I’m obsessed. My skin doesn’t get irritated and I don’t break out. It feels amazing. Not too thick, not too thin. As an added bonus, it smells great.
