It Was Just A HouseThe smell of freshly baked bread coming through a refugee camp takes a young girl back to happier times in her home country.

The smell of freshly baked bread coming through a refugee camp takes a young girl back to happier times in her home country. This memory lasts as long as the aroma that quickly evaporates into the heavy, thick air of the camp. The young girl is forced to embark on a journey of hardship and displacement, ultimately finding relief at the Baqaa refugee camp in Jordan with her parents and two brothers. While the conditions of the camp are something most would consider substandard, the young girl communicates a strong, powerful message about optimism and family. This tale is based on true stories and encounters that Katherine Mary Kraver has experienced while traveling throughout Jordan, located in the Middle East. Her hope is to embed empathy in readers of all ages by sharing this empowering story told from the perspective of a child.

Happy with these boots
Nice-looking and more comfortable than expected for a pointy toe—I’ve worn them a lot for events.

Absolutely soft leather
Color: Coffee
I ordered the coffee color, absolutely love it.Super soft- I have ordered brands that cost 4xs as much & returned because of stiff leather. The zippers simply glide.I love all the different zipper pockets, I like having a place for everything, my phone fits perfectly in the back side zipper area. The front magnetic for my key fob.Zipper above to get out quick cash.I had a hard time deciding which color I wanted! It's roomy enough inside but not too big where Im going to carry things I dont need. It's nice having 2 straps to trade out- im starting with the guitar strap- like that it is adjustable straps & on swivel hooks.And you can really smell the genuine leather. For my preference I would have liked it to have been 2 to 3 inches shorter height wise as I was looking to replace a few bags I used when flying but this is perfect for an everyday crossbody.This bag looks very well made. Nothing fancy on the inside. Plan on searching for this brand in smaller size and some soft colors for spring & summer.

Definitely would recommend
Color: Brown, Color: Brown
This bag had soft leather and looked just like the picture on the product page. There is the main compartment, two zippers and two slip pockets on the inside. I do like the bag, but I don’t usually like slip pockets because a lot of times when you’re just throwing things into the bag items might go into a slip pocket without you realizing it. I didn’t pay attention to this when I bought the bag, but I still really like it. On the back is a large compartment with a zipper. On the front is another large compartment with a zipper and a pocket with a magnetic snap. I bought the brownish color one and it’s really beautiful. I would definitely recommend it. It does come with two straps I am trying out the one they call Boho for now. It is very nice. The other one which I guess is leather also is much thinner.

STURDY, WELL MADE, AND ATTRACTIVE BUT..
Color: Coffee
The title say everything there is to say about this purse. I especially loved the two outside pockets that worked perfectly for my phone, keys etc. making them easily accessible. Unfortunately the inside zipped compartment that many find useful was the bane of my life.. I could not remember whether I had put something inside the zipped pocket or on either side - and if so on which side. Besides which all small things (lipstick, small pill case, etc) fell on their side and were very difficult to see and find in the black interior. I guess I am too used to a purse organizer (light colored) which has stiff pockets in which everything stands up vertically. All it takes is a glance to locate what you need.. I had to, almost regretfully, return this purse but lesson learned - only buy a purse minus middle pocket which leaves no room for an organizer.
