Alexandria Giardinoand Felicita Sala’s poetic, beautifully illustrated picture book is inspired by Ode to the Onion by Chilean poet Pablo Neruda (1904–1973).
A Junior Library Guild Selection
Pablo has a lunch date with his friend Matilde, who shows the moody poet her garden. Where Pablo sees conflict and sadness, Matilde sees love and hope.
The story is less a biography of Neruda and his muse, Matilde Urrutia (1912–1985), and more a simple ode to a vegetable that is humble and luminous, dark and light, gloomy and glad, full of grief and full of joy—just like life.
“Children who love words should warm to Alexandria Giardino’s Ode to an Onion: Pablo Neruda & His Muse . . . In Felicita Sala’s vivacious and beautifully detailed drawings, done in colored pencil, Mathilde’s smile and Pablo’s glum expression give a tender humor to this real-life relationship.” —New York Times
“Gloomy versus hopeful. Therein lies the timeless tension between Nobel Laureate Pablo Neruda and his wife-to-be in this lovingly envisioned and supremely handsome book.” —San Francisco Chronicle

Good value
The sheets remove make well and are non-irritating. They are also reasonably priced.

Effective but drying
Worked well on sensitive skin and to remove makeup but it felt like it dried out my eyelashes and skin.

FOR SENSITIVE SKIN!
Style: Exfoliating 2% AHA, Size: 60 Count (Pack of 1)
These are so great! My face started to break out at my temples, cheekbones and chin from being stressed. Got these and I could tell a difference in my skin the next day. I use them every morning and I have sensitive skin. My face is not dry and they leave my face refreshed. They are easy to get out, use and are soft. Smells good too! Small size but heavy duty! Great for your money! I will be buying them and putting them on a subscription. Hoping they will also help my soon to be 13yr old.
