The 2019 Coretta Scott King Illustrator Award WinnerIn an astonishing unfurling of our universe, Newbery Honor winner Marion Dane Bauer and Caldecott Honor winner Ekua Holmes celebrate the birth of every child. Before the universe was formed, before time and space existed, there was . . . nothing. But then . . . BANG Stars caught fire and burned so long that they exploded, flinging stardust everywhere. And the ash of those stars turned into planets. Into our Earth. And into us. In a poetic text, Marion Dane Bauer takes readers from the trillionth of a second when our universe was born to the singularities that became each one of us, while vivid illustrations by Ekua Holmes capture the void before the Big Bang and the ensuing life that burst across galaxies. A seamless blend of science and art, this picture book reveals the composition of our world and beyond -- and how we are all the stuff of stars.

Great quality and easy to assemble!
Color: Blues, Size: 56 LB, Color: Blues, Size: 56 LB
I’m really happy with this dumbbell set. The stand was very easy to assemble and feels sturdy once put together. The neoprene coating on the weights is comfortable to grip and doesn’t slip, even when your hands get a little sweaty. I also love the colors—they make the set look nice in my workout space. Perfect for home workouts, compact, and easy to move around. Definitely worth it if you’re looking for a practical and stylish weight set!

Happy customer
Color: Black, Size: 32 LB, Color: Black, Size: 32 LB
I recently purchased a set of black dumbbell weights, and I couldn't be happier with my decision!
These dumbbells are solid and built to last. The weight material feels durable, and I can tell they're gonna last. These weights are perfect for all my exercises. They come in a range of sizes, allowing me to easily adjust the weight for different muscle groups. I love the sleek black finish! It not only looks stylish in my home gym but also adds a touch of professionalism to my space. The price point is excellent considering the quality and durability of these dumbbells. I've seen similar products at a much higher price, but these offer the same benefits without breaking the bank. Their design makes them easy to grip, and the smooth texture ensures I can maintain my hold even during the sweatiest workouts. Plus, they're compact and easy to store, making them perfect for home use.
Overall, these dumbbell weights check all the boxes. I highly recommend them to anyone looking to enhance their fitness journey!

Great Set
Color: Multicolor, Size: 146 LB
This is a great set of dumbbells. I was looking for the weights in this set and I wanted a nice rack to keep them off the floor. So far they feel solid and accurate and are working as expected. The reason for 4 stars and not 5 - The (2) 20 pound dumbbells shipped separate, which was fine...but everything else was in 1 box! That's 106 pounds plus the rack and packaging. The delivery guy struggled and almost dropped it, and then I had to move it from my front door step. How much more could it cost them to ship it in 3 boxes or redistribute it into 2 boxes under 100 pounds? So lucky the box didn't drop and the contents get lost or wrecked.
Otherwise it is a great set!
