Nick Jans leads us into his "found" home --- the Eskimo village of Ambler, Alaska, and the vast wilderness around it. In his powerful essays, the rhythms of daily arctic life blend with high adventure --- camping among the wolves, traveling with Inupiat hunters, witnessing the Kobuk River at spring breakup.

The poignancy of a village funeral comes to life, hordes of mosquitoes whine against a tent, a grizzly stands etched against the snow --- just a sampling of the images and events rendered in Jan's transparent, visual prose. Moments of humor ar offset by haunting insights, and by thoughtful reflections on contemporary Inupiaq culture, making A Place Beyond a book to read and enjoy.

I bought this cream for my baby because my skin was very dry and irritated, and I really liked it. From the first days I noticed that the skin was more hydrated and less reddened. I like that it has no fragrance, which is ideal for babies with sensitive skin. The texture is soft, absorbs well and does not leave the skin greasy. In addition, it yields a lot because with a small amount it is enough. I definitely recommend it for babies with dry skin or prone to eczema. It has worked very well for me and I would buy it again.

Great product for babies!
Size: 8 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Great product. Switched from Aveeno Ezcema cream to Eucerin and I have no regrets. The cream helped reduce my little ones flare ups and it doesn’t leave a greasy feeling afterwards. I use it all over his body. He’s 51/2 months now and his skin is smooth and barely any redness or inflammation.

HOLY GRAIL for baby’s eczema!!!
Size: 8 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
The ONLY lotion that helps our baby’s eczema prone skin!!! It not only prevents flair ups, but it calms & soothes his skin when flair ups do happen. It’s not greasy, it rubs in pretty well with some effort, it’s thick & has no smell which is great for sensitive skin. Lotion is just expensive regardless of what kind you get, but we feel like this splurge is worth it for our guys skin.

Effective!
Size: 8 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This works wonders for our baby’s eczema! He had several rough patches on his arms, legs and cheeks and so far everything has cleared up except his arms, they will occasionally flare up but the cream helps soothe and reduce redness within a couple hours. It’s also a nice hand lotion for me, lol

Good face cream
Size: 8 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Works well! Cream is on the lighter side and easy to apply. Love the tube design makes it easy to use and keeps the cream clean. Fragrance free and will last a long time. Great product!
