Description:
The Burning Elephant is set in Kolkata before and after the assassination of Indira Gandhi, which led to widespread violence against India's Sikh population. The novel is told from the point of view of a young boy Govinda, whose father is the headmaster of a local school. It begins with the intrusion into the schoolyard of an elephant that has escaped from its owner, and is seen as such a danger that he is immediately shot, then burnt by the police. This outbreak of violence in the idyllic world of childhood sets the tone for the novel as a whole, which gives the innocent yet knowing perspectives of Govinda in his engagement with the crowded and complex life of Serpent Lane outside the school, his awareness of the breakdown of the relationship between his parents, his sense that his own privileged life is under threat. The way the tensions in his family are rendered against the backdrop of the larger social tensions in India, while at the same time maintaining Govinda's child-like point of view, is particularly compelling.It is the outbreak of violence after Indira Gandhi's death which finally causes Govinda's father to migrate to Australia - and it is the implicit lesson of this novel, never spelt out, but felt throughout, that such horror is often a central fact of migration to this country.

Me a encantado este producto lo único malo que me pasó es que la parte de la esponja se descoció o me tocó que cocerlo para que no se le saliera la esponja, de ahí en fuera muy buen producto

Made very well!~!
Color: Frog&strawberry, Color: Frog&strawberry
Arrived as pictured. Boxed nice and cute. Suitable to send as a gift or for retail sales. These are not only adorable but wash very well. My grandson and I both like them. He said the strawberry was for me and he took the frog. I normally have to bribe him to bathe but all I have to say is froggy is waiting and he runs in!~!~ I love my strawberry and it really cleans well. Such fun and I'm delighted with them both. The size is perfect and I'm grateful. We have been using them for awhile to and they have held up like new. Worth the cost and priced very fair.

Super Cute Sponges for kids!
Color: Frog&strawberry, Color: Frog&strawberry
This is a pack of super cute kids bath sponges. These are sponges attached to loofahs that have a loop on them and can be hung to dry. These are shaped, One looked like a frog and the other like a strawberry making this pack accommodate both boy and girls. These sponges work very well and feel like they're made of a decent quality. The sponge area is very soft and the loofahs feel well made. These are a perfect size for the kiddos. These do a good job at lathering up the suds for the little ones. These also feel like they have a good durability and don't feel like they're gonna fall apart anytime soon. These are super cute and would make a great gift as well.
The value on this is not very expensive. These are affordable especially for gifting. giving this an expected value in my opinion and at the time of this review.
Overall, these sponges are super cute and would make a fantastic gifts for little ones. I would have no issues recommending these.

Very functional, and lots of fun for little kids. Gentle enough for their skin, too.
Color: Frog&strawberry
These are so awesome. Two of them come in a box. There's a frog one and a strawberry one. They are inside individual zip lock bags inside the box. There's a scrubbie/loofa (not a natural one, just the plastic webbing type) on one side, and cloth-covered plushie/sponge on the other side that is the strawberry/frog. My granddaughter loves them. She can use them to clean and scrub herself, just like a big girl, but with a fun sponge/scrubby that she likes, so she always knows that there's a special one that is just hers. They absorb plenty of water and soap, and are good for cleaning their whole body. They are just the right size to fit in an adult hand, so a little big for solo use by a little hand, but there are plenty of bits to grab onto on either side, so it's not hard for a little kid to hang onto them. The loofah/scrubby side is well made, although it will become big and loose as those things always do if you pull on them too much. The sponge/toy side is very soft, and definitely gentle enough for a small child's skin.
My only dislike is the small loop for hanging it on a hook in the shower. The little loop is just tiny and hard to separate, so it's difficult to get it onto a hook so it can hang and dry out in between uses. It would have been very easy to make the loop longer and more functional, so I'm not sure why they didn't.
Other than that one, minor inconvenience, this is a great product.

Adorable scrubbie
Color: Turtle&bunny
Durable sponge made with quality material. Great value for price, soap lathers well and no signs of wear and tear after using for a month. Not too rough on the skin, plus you can’t beat the adorable turtle design
