The Search for Melvin, set in 1959-1960, the third book in THE JOE MACGREGOR SERIES, may at times leave the readers on the edge of their seats. A private investigator sets out to find a kidnapped teenager and ends up facing a killer tiger. Searchers trek through the forest looking for clues, hoping to find a dead body. Joe comes close to death again during a high-speed chase in the sheriff’s squad car. A boy disabled by polio hitches a ride in the trunk of a stolen vehicle. A could-be witch wants to trade information in exchange for eye surgery. The people of Small Town, Mo., come upon the aftermath of a straight-out execution, and there is a mysterious creature, or is there?

There’s family conflict, murder, anger between friends, talk of black magic and mercenaries, men considered giants, a thriller high-speed chase, and a heroic dwarf who’s a trapeze artist and magician, not to mention humor to balance out the trauma.

Small town, Missouri, still does not know another war lurks in the future.

The first book in the series, A SUIT FOR MELVIN, illustrates the maturity of a friendship during which an underprivileged seventh grader, who lives with his grandmother, works to see that a poverty-stricken boy in his class gets his chance to go to a dance intended for all seventh-grade students. J.J., a mischievous boy, who has very little himself, tries to help Melvin who he sees as someone less fortunate than himself. The situation grows sinister, and the reader has an opportunity to then see Melvin’s growth.

The second book, A HORSE FOR JOE, also set in 1959-1960, is dedicated to the writer’s high school classmates and college peers who served in Vietnam as is this book, A SEARCH FOR MELVIN. We see Joe adjust to a new family, fight his sexual emotions, try to run from a stalker, escape death.

Every soldier was once a child.

Works great, could use a better sprayer
Style: Kids SPF 50, Size: 5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I gave it 4 stars ONLY because I've had the nozzle break on at least 1 of these. So they could improve the way it sprays, but overall I'm very happy with the product. It keeps my whole family from getting burned and goes on clear. I love this because my kids always complain that they don't like the whitecast, so this one is a keeper!

Really nice sunscreen
Style: Kids SPF 50, Size: 5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I always buy kids sunscreen because everything else burns my eyes. I haven't notices this stuff burning. It smells really nice and doesn't feel yucky going on like some stuff does.

DOESNT SPRAY do not buy
Style: Kids SPF 50, Size: 5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Doesn’t work AT ALL. And I’m annoyed because it’s not eligible for return even with prime. What am I supposed to do with a sunscreen that won’t spray? YES, it’s in thru blocked position, it will not spray. I’d love my money back please.

Reliable protection that stays put during workouts!
Style: SPF 50, Size: 8 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I’ve tried many expensive name-brand sunscreens, but this Amazon Basics version performs just as well, if not better. It’s become my go-to for morning runs and trips to the beach because it actually stays on even when I’m sweating. Why I gave it 5 stars: Non-Greasy Formula: Unlike other sport sunscreens, this one absorbs quickly and doesn't leave that heavy, sticky film on my skin. Actually Water Resistant: I’ve used it for laps in the pool and long hikes; as long as I reapply as directed, I haven't had a single sunburn. No "Sting": One of the best things is that it doesn't run into my eyes and sting when I start to sweat—a huge plus for runners. Great Value: You get a generous 8-ounce bottle for a fraction of the price of "premium" brands. The fact that it’s formulated without Oxybenzone is an added bonus for peace of mind. If you’re looking for effective, no-frills sun protection for an active lifestyle, you can't beat this. It’s a staple in my gym bag now!
