A 2005 Sibert Honor Book The story of Sequoyah is the tale of an ordinary man with an extraordinary idea--to create a writing system for the Cherokee Indians and turn his people into a nation of readers and writers. The task he set for himself was daunting. Sequoyah knew no English and had no idea how to capture speech on paper. But slowly and painstakingly, ignoring the hoots and jibes of his neighbors and friends, he worked out a system that surprised the Cherokee Nation--and the world of the 1820s--with its beauty and simplicity. James Rumford's Sequoyah is a poem to celebrate literacy, a song of a people's struggle to stand tall and proud.Binding Type: Hardcover

Not worth it for 1/2 oz total liquid and no spray.
Size: 2 Pack Pocket Size
This is a teeny-tiny bottle and it came with no sprayer! Just a screw off lid! Now I have to drive to Kohl's to return it. What a rip-off. There are only two, just 1/4 ounce each. Total deception. Can you tell I'm upset!???

Great tart candy for dry mouth!

These are delicious tart cherry candies that help combat dry mouth. They are sugar free and individually wrapped so it’s easy to carry a few around in your pocket or purse.

These work well
Flavor Name: Tart Cherry, Size: 3.85 Ounce (Pack of 1)
These are a nice alternative to lemon drops. They are a little sour/tart but that’s the point. They taste just like a regular hard piece of candy, without the sugar. They do help my dry mouth and I will purchase them again!

Flavor is pretty good, but could be better
Flavor Name: Tart Cherry, Size: 3.85 Ounce (Pack of 1)
In trying to find a keto candy WITHOUT maltitol, this one is a pretty good one. It’s a great blend of tart and sweet, but I just wish the cherry flavor was more concentrated. The flavor is good- just a little dull. I’ll still rebuy them because they help satisfy my cravings, keep me keto, and don’t give me any stomach issues.
