Based on supermodel Georgie Badiel's childhood, a young girl dreams of bringing clean drinking water to her African village
With its wide sky and warm earth, Princess Gie Gie's kingdom is a beautiful land. But clean drinking water is scarce in her small African village. And try as she might, Gie Gie cannot bring the water closer; she cannot make it run clearer. Every morning, she rises before the sun to make the long journey to the well. Instead of a crown, she wears a heavy pot on her head to collect the water. After the voyage home, after boiling the water to drink and clean with, Gie Gie thinks of the trip that tomorrow will bring. And she dreams. She dreams of a day when her village will have cool, crystal-clear water of its own. Inspired by the childhood of African-born model Georgie Badiel, acclaimed author Susan Verde and award-winning author/illustrator Peter H. Reynolds have come together to tell this moving story. As a child in Burkina Faso, Georgie and the other girls in her village had to walk for miles each day to collect water. This vibrant, engaging picture book sheds light on this struggle that continues all over the world today, instilling hope for a future when all children will have access to clean drinking water.Binding Type: Hardcover

Lightweight but I like it
Color: Black, Material Type: Stainless Steel
Honestly fantastic for the price. It's just heavy enough to not get yanked around. It's pretty. And it has not looked like it has any wear or anything yet. I would recommend it. Especially for the price. If you want something a little bit more heavy duty I would definitely go with something else but I've had no issues

It gets the job done.
Color: Silver, Material Type: Stainless Steel
These some on a flat piece of cardboard, and I was concerned. It goes together well, and has held up to Highschooler use for a month so far. It looks nice, but is nothing fancy. If you are looking for any sort of resistance for your paper towel for tearing, this product probably isn't for you. It is weighted enough for it to not fall over, it looks nice enough to be fine but not nice enough to want to steal. Exactly what I was looking for. If you are searching for the perfect paper towel holder... you probably will take issue with this one. If you just need a new paper towel holder, this one might do.

Bottom screw will rust and permanently stain counter
Color: Black, Material Type: Stainless Steel, Color: Black, Material Type: Stainless Steel
Besides the ungalvanized or stainless steel bottom screw that rusts at the first sign of moisture this product has held up incredibly well. I've used the product for 3 years and that is the only problem. I'm probably going to get a deduction in my security deposit for the rust stains that have permeated the countertop. The rest of the product is really well made and holds up well

Crafting Convenience: Sturdy and Stylish One-Handed Towel Holder for Creative Spaces
Color: Black, Material Type: Stainless Steel
Thisit has become a great addition to my craft area. The struggle to find a convenient place for paper towels is real, especially when crafting can get a bit messy. Prior attempts with a magnetic holder fell short, as it couldn't support the weight of a full paper towel roll. The promise of a one-handed dispensing solution was intriguing and seemed like the perfect fit for my needs.
While I can't unequivocally say this holder allows for flawless one-handed dispensing – it seems the success of that feature might depend on the angle at which the towel is torn – it's still a significant upgrade from my previous setup. The sturdy stand ensures the towels are always within reach, without the risk of the holder tipping over or the roll coming loose.
Apart from its functionality, the aesthetic aspect of this towel holder is a notable advantage. Its minimalist design doesn't just save space; it also contributes to the overall look and feel of my crafting space. The wrought iron style is a perfect match with my other accessories, creating a cohesive and stylish environment.
In conclusion, this towel holder is more than just a functional tool; it's a stylish addition that enhances the convenience and appearance of my crafting area. Its sturdy build, practical design, and complementary style make it a winner in my book.
