“My worries will be over if only I can get to America!” This was all Kwesi Asamane dreamed about while battling the foiling and turmoil in his native home-Ghana. Overcoming insurmountable odds, he arrives in America on a partial college scholarship. His enthusiasm and hope of the newly found freedom to pursue his dreams entails, grueling combats and unswerving expositions. Soon Kwesi’s hopes are sequentially masked and, in their place, cynicism takes residence as his faith erodes and ambition fades. Cerebrally spent and alienated, estranged, and withdrawn, Kwesi reaches for the simple life he once knew, but returning to his native-Ghana is no eat al fresco. Expectations are unreasonable and traces of his assimilated American culture suddenly surfaces making him a foreigner among his own people. Dithering betwixt dissimilar cultures, Kwesi must choose whether to return to his contemporary views of civility and persuasions in his adopted American home or unwind the hands of time to reconnect with his ancestral beliefs. While in contemplation, tragedy triggers a purgation; everything changes, Kwesi must belong but where? And to whom?

Good quality. Decent price.
Style: Fox, Raccoon, Squirrel
The small size is perfect for my 13# dog, but I was somehow under the impression that one squeaker was in the head while the other was in the tail (and that might be the case for rhe larger size), but one us in the main body, with the other in the tail. The head is flat, and there's no way to push the sqeaker in the body up into the head. Ordinarily, this wouldn't matter -- and my dog LOVES the one I gave him so far; he's squeaking up a storm! -- but I bought these toys specifically so I could fill the (presumably empty, but in reality not) body between head and tail with chopped up pool noodles so my paraplegic dog could take it into the water treadmill treatment he's starting in a couple weeks. I wanted something that would float and be largely waterproof (no fluff inside in case he drops it in the water), that he could hold in his mouth instead of wearing a muzzle. I've rated these toys 4 stars because he does love them, they seem well made, and they're pretty affordable. I would buy them again, though not for the same purpose. (He hates rubber toys, so this was my last hope. Lol?)

Strong Chewer Friendly Toy
Style: Variety Pack - Large (3-pack)
My dog is a rough chewer and these last a really long time (clearly since this beaver's face is long gone! The no stuffing is a win too for cleaning up afterwards.

The Ad got me, the reality didn't
Style: Variety Pack - Large (3-pack)
Directly from the ad- "Exclusive Noisemakers - Each large toy includes 3 high-quality round squeakers to deliver more sound to keep your best friend entertained.". Now my neighbor bought this squirrel with three high-quality squeakers nearly a year ago. It's ragged and tattered I just recently sewed it up for him where he chewed the one leg odd, but those three noise makers are still squeaking. Whe I got my pup, I immediately went to buy one and they were no longer selling them, so I've been on a search for one or an equivalent. These are not. There's no stuffing to get all over the place when your pup breaks into it, a plus. However the squeakers weren't particularly loud and were silenced in a few hours. Two were dead and the remaining one was very well on its way. The toy itself was pretty much intact but that had more to do with the lack of attention from the dog than how rugged the toy is. He'll pick it up once in a while but it certainly didn't meet my expectations. The good thing is that there are three of them so I can give him some brief excitement in the future. Wouldn't buy again.
