The author of Mesmerized shares another comical true tale of a Founding Father using science to defeat ignorance and stop the spread of false information.

Thomas Jefferson was wild about numbers. He was constantly counting, measuring, and observing things that caught his interest. He loved sharing his discoveries and reading the discoveries of others. But when a famous Frenchman published a book about America, Jefferson was appalled: all the information in the book was wrong. The author insisted that America was a wretched, dismal place, where birds could not sing, dogs could not bark, and everything and everyone was puny and weak. Thomas Jefferson resolved to set the record straight -- with numbers -- and prove to the world that the new nation was worthy of investment. But how do you show that a country is plentiful in an age when photography hasn't been invented yet? Mara Rockliff, master of children's nonfiction, details another little-known moment in math and natural history, illustrated with humor by prolific artist S. D. Schindler and accompanied by extensive back matter and an informative author's note.

This stuff has a strong scent. Sort of beachy, sunscreen smell, which is not my favorite. It is definitely shimmery. I used this for a hawaiian themed party. It was pretty! It dried down fairly quickly. I did place a towel down in my car before I got in it just in case some of it came off the back of my legs and got all over the seat. I wear black pants to work most days, and didn't want a glitter butt every day.

LOVE this product! Bought few bottles because they were on sale. You get such a nice bronze glow. I dont just use on face I put around collar bone area, legs and arms. Subtle glitter and glisten. You dont need a lot. One pumps is small amount, but goes a long way. I get lots of compliments when sun or light hits just right. LOVE LOVE LOVE
