Coretta Scott King Award winner Ashley Bryan's adaptation of a tale from the Ila-speaking people of Zambia resonates both with rhythm and the tale's universal meanings--appreciating one's heritage and discovering the beauty within. His cut-paper artwork will charm and delight readers of all ages. Black is beautiful, uh-huh Long ago, Blackbird was voted the most beautiful bird in the forest. The other birds, who were colored red, yellow, blue, and green, were so envious that they begged Blackbird to paint their feathers with a touch of black so they could be beautiful too. Although Black-bird warns them that true beauty comes from within, the other birds persist and soon each is given a ring of black around their neck or a dot of black on their wings--markings that detail birds to this very day. Coretta Scott King Award-winner Ashley Bryan's adaptation of a tale from the Ila-speaking people of Zambia reso-nates both with rhythm and the tale's universal meanings -- appreciating one's heritage and discovering the beauty within. His cut-paper artwork is a joy.Binding Type: Hardcover

Smells good and conditions dash well
Dust is sticking to my dash more but that’s to be expected I think. My kid also starting trying to clean the back windows with them and they streaked them up, so not for windows. Seals tight, seems like they will last a while.

Love that scent
I have been using Maguiar’s products for decades. I purchased these wipes shortly after I used one of their spray on detailing products in my garage. In that setting, the detail spray scent was addictive…almost like a tropical suntan lotion. Normally, I am not much on scents that can be overwhelming…like plug in house products or those things sit in your vehicle vents… they tend to be too strong and/or too pervasive. But in a garage, and diluted with the surrounding air…that detailing product scent was luscious, just enough, not too much. That scent prompted me to search online for “Maguiar’s wax scent” and I found some user forums discussing this topic. Lots of people think similar things and compare various other products. I learned that Maguiar’s recognized the marketing importance of scent in their products a while back, but I had never really noticed it, although it has always been my go to product line for wax and detailing products. This encouraged me to order some of these wipes for cleaning interior surfaces.
I was not disappointed! The new car scent is just enough “new plastic” mixed with some sweetness of those other signature tropical notes to add a nice touch to the cleaning activity, while being just lightly persistent enough to make you notice that scent when you get into a freshly cleaned vehicle. I would not want that same scent to be too strong or persistent, and it is not. Additionally, as a cleaning product, it works very well. The dashboard plastics end up more matte than glossy with application, something else I appreciate. I am not a fan of super shiny or glossy.
Thanks for a great product Maguiars!

Not a clean wipe but smells good
Leaves behind a thick residue and makes a weird texture/coat on your interior
