A New York Times Bestseller, National Book Award finalist, and instant fantasy classic about the power of community, generosity, books, and baked goods, from the author of the beloved Newbery Medal winner The Girl Who Drank the Moon.

Stone-in-the-Glen is a once-lovely town that has fallen on hard times. The beautiful Library burned down; the dazzling, dragon-slaying Mayor offers more speeches than action. And for all their resourcefulness, the fourteen clever Orphans at the Orphan House still struggle to get enough to eat.

When a mysterious neighbor begins leaving baked goods and other gifts around Stone-in-the-Glen, the Orphans start to explore the history and possibilities of their town. Then one day, a child goes missing from the Orphan House. At the Mayor's accusation, all eyes turn to the Ogress who lives nearby--a stranger to the townsfolk (or so they think).

How can the Orphans share the story of the Ogress's goodness with people who refuse to listen? And how can they help their misguided neighbors see the real villain in their midst?

Perfect for a cozy read-aloud, this modern parable about the magic of stories and kindness features a readers' discussion guide.

Perfect consistency and gentle enough for rosacea
Scent: Honey & Sweet Orange, Size: 5 Ounce (Pack of 1)
This is one of the best tallow-based moisturizers I’ve tried. I rarely leave reviews, but this product truly deserves one. The consistency is perfect—rich and nourishing without feeling heavy or greasy, and it absorbs beautifully into the skin. It doesn’t feel thick or like you’re wearing a mask. The scent is also very mild with a light hint of orange that fades quickly after application, which I really appreciate since many natural products can be overpowering. I have rosacea and very sensitive skin, and this is one of the few natural skincare products that hasn’t caused irritation or redness. It leaves my skin feeling calm, hydrated, and balanced. If you’re looking for a high-quality tallow moisturizer for sensitive or rosacea-prone skin, I highly recommend giving this one a try.

Too thick and greasy for my sensitive skin
Scent: Honey & Sweet Orange, Size: 5 Ounce (Pack of 1), Scent: Honey & Sweet Orange, Size: 5 Ounce (Pack of 1)
This is the fifth different beef tallow product that I’ve tried in the last few months. I’ve been in search for the perfect one that doesn’t leave my skin feeling greasy. I was really excited to try this after reading the great reviews, however this product is not for me. It is very thick, almost waxy like and I almost have to use my fingernail just to get it out. I know it’s not whipped and that it’s a balm, but it is way too thick and heavy for me. I’ve been looking for a nice moisturizer for my face, but this is far too greasy for my oily sensitive skin, especially on my face. I have been using it on my chest and neck and even on my legs and it is very hydrating and makes my chest extremely soft, even 12 hours after I put it on. I love that it’s a clean product with great ingredients. It has a very mild scent, almost non-detectable. I was really hoping this would be a good one for my face, sadly it did not hit the mark for my sensitive skin.

Amazing!
Scent: Unscented, Size: 8 Ounce (Pack of 1), Scent: Unscented, Size: 8 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I’ve been using this for a few days now and my skin has already improved so much!! My skin feels sooo much smoother, especially in the areas where my dry spots were really showing. This tallow helped smooth everything out and absorbed into my skin amazingly. I honestly have nothing but good things to say about this product. I also love that it comes in a big jar because I use moisturizer 24/7, so this will definitely last me a while. It’s been especially amazing for my eczema it cleared up within just a few days! I will forever repurchase this and recommend it to everyone. There’s no fragrance, which I love. It does feel a little greasy at first, but that goes away pretty quickly once it absorbs. The application, size, and absorption are all amazing 💕

Not bad for the price point.
Scent: Unscented, Size: 8 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I don't mind this product; it's well-priced; however, in practice, it was slightly too oily. I prefer other beef tallow products, or even just straight-up beef tallow, rather than this product. Because I have severe eczema on my hands, I prefer tallow blends that have faster absorption. However, this product is perfectly suited for use as a night moisturizer or as a hand mask. I would probably buy this again if the formulation were less oily/greasy next time.
