A New York Times Book Review Editors' Choice
A Washington Post Notable Fiction Book of Year
A NPR Best Book of the Year

In Amitav Ghosh's Sea of Poppies, the Ibis began its treacherous journey across the Indian Ocean, bound for the cane fields of Mauritius with a cargo of indentured servants. Now, in River of Smoke, the former slave ship flounders in the Bay of Bengal, caught in the midst of a deadly cyclone. The storm also threatens the clipper ship Anahita, groaning with the largest consignment of opium ever to leave India for Canton. Meanwhile, the Redruth, a nursery ship, carries horticulturists determined to track down the priceless botanical treasures of China. All will converge in Canton's Fanqui-town, or Foreign Enclave, a powder keg awaiting a spark to ignite the Opium Wars. A spectacular adventure, but also a bold indictment of global avarice, River of Smoke is a consuming historical novel with powerful contemporary resonance.

Great Sandals for Toddlers
Size: 6 Wide Toddler, Color: Brown
I love this brand of shoes, all the shoes are very flexible and easy to get on my toddler. They've help up well for us and should easily last to the next kid, if not more beyond as well. These shoes are cute and great gender neutral sandals that don't break the bank for the quality. My son loves them too, and he is very ready to make his opinions known.

Cute but runs big and made for high volume feet
Size: 8 Wide Toddler, Color: Brown
Cute shoes, otherwise they would only get 3 stars. Do not recommend using the size chart. I used the size chart and tried to measure carefully, yet the first ones we got were literally several sizes too large for my daughter. I returned them and sized down 2 sizes, and they are workable but still on the big side. Beware. They are also extremely high volume. If my daughter wears them barefoot, there is quite a gap between her foot and the top of the sandal. If she wears socks, especially her thick winter socks, it’s closer to a decent fit. Again, beware. I would buy again…not sure. My daughter is very fond of them, and that says a lot. She’s three and has very strong opinions about things😅

Nice quality but a bit big
Size: 8 Wide Toddler, Color: Tan
These seem like great quality. 3 stars because they are large on my child’s wide foot, so I imagine they are even bigger on narrow and/or average feet.
