Among scientists who write, no one illuminates as well as Stephen Jay Gould doesthe wonderful workings of the natural world.

Along with way, he opens to us the mysteries of fish tails, frog calls, and other matters, and shows once and for all why we must take notice when a seemingly insignificant creature is threatened, like the land snail Partula from Moorea, whose extinction he movingly relates."Binding Type: Paperback

We travel with it every vacation
Color: Blue, Size: 7x7 FT (1～3 person)
Large blanket that packs small, is lightweight, sand proof, anchors easy with provided stakes and pockets for sand to weigh down- it stays put even in the strongest winds. Have taken to South Africa and Hawaii- everyone wants it!! Washes so easily.

Festival Must Have
Color: Green, Size: 7x7 FT (1～3 person)
Enough said. It was quick, easy, big and awesome! The 3 person fit 5 of us. It’s light, and folds up small. We used it on wet grass and didn’t get wet! It was awesome. Buying extras for presents.

easy to setup and clean
Color: Blue, Size: 9x7 FT (1～5 person)
We use this constantly for kids sports. I do wish I would have got the smaller size because it's really big. I love the hooks that hold it in the ground. There's also pockets to use sand to weight it down. I was expecting the material to be a little different, it feels like a windbreaker, but it cleans really nicely.

Perfect!
Color: Blue, Size: 9x10 FT (1～8 person), Color: Blue, Size: 9x10 FT (1～8 person)
First off, this thing is HUGE! I love that the side pockets fill with sand to keep from flying away and how easy it is to stuff back in and put away.. Its definitley machine wash safe (use cool water to prevent the material from getting messed up) and it doesn't get that wet towel smell if being used multiple times during a trip.. It's been camping and beaching LOL.. Would buy again when this one needs to be replaced.

Must buy for summer

Lightweight, compact, and super easy to pack. Sand shakes right off and it dries quickly, which is perfect for the beach.
