An extraordinary true account of the enormous tragedy of the Syrian civil conflict.Since the revolution-turned-civil war in Syria began in 2011, over 500,000 civilians have been killed and more than 12 million Syrians have been displaced. Rania Abouzeid, one of the foremost journalists on the topic, follows two pairs of sisters from opposite sides of the conflict to give readers a firsthand glimpse of the turmoil and devastation this strife has wrought. Sunni Muslim Ruha and her younger sister Alaa withstand constant attacks by the Syrian government in rebel-held territory. Alawite sisters Hanin and Jawa try to carry on as normal in the police state of regime-held Syria. The girls grow up in a world where nightly bombings are routine and shrapnel counts as toys. They bear witness to arrests, killings, demolished homes, and further atrocities most adults could not even imagine. Still, war does not dampen their sense of hope. Through the stories of Ruha and Alaa and Hanin and Jawa, Abouzeid presents a clear-eyed and page-turning account of the complex conditions in Syria leading to the onset of the harrowing conflict. With Abouzeid's careful attention and remarkable reporting, she crafts an incredibly empathetic and nuanced narrative of the Syrian civil war, and the promise of progress these young people still embody.

Necessary for a small dog.
These are great for a small dog! They can get their mouth around it unlike a round ball. My dog is obsessed with these.
They are great for making him love a new guest to the house. All they have to do is squeak and throw the toy and they have a new friend!

Great for little dogs but squeaker breaks too easily
My Maltese is about 4.5 pounds and absolutely loves these! He got very excited to play with it right away. The shape is like a slightly flattened ball which is great bc he can pick it up in his tiny mouth. It’s actually quite cute to see him run with it back to me. When you throw it, the way it bounces and rolls is very unpredictable, which I think adds to the fun. Sometimes my pup drops it while running back and it goes rolling or awkwardly bouncing away from him which causes him to get more excited to chase it and grab it again. It’s been a highly entertaining toy for almost a week straight. The only downside is that the squeaker in it isn’t very durable. After a few days of playing and chewing to squeak it himself, the squeaker barely makes any noise. My pup isn’t an aggressive chewer at all so if your dog is an aggressive chewer, the squeaker really will not last.

G for small dogs
My Havanese absolutely loves these small toys, which we refer to as pucks. They are the perfect size for him. His previous favorite was a small green pig, but ever since we purchased these for his second birthday, he has shown no interest in the pig. They are easy to throw and fit comfortably in his mouth. I plan to purchase more. I would not recommend for strong chewers. My only complaint is I wish they all had happy or crazy faces instead of angry or sad ones.

hours of fun
my dogs really loved this toy. I would highly recommend this, but the squeaker is louder than normal so if noise bothers you, then I would not recommend.

Picky dog approved!
Color: S6-muti-color, Color: S6-muti-color
I have wasted so much money on dog balls that they won't even pick up! They finally were obsessed with the Kong rubber green/blue or red/blue ones, but they're $3+. each, and they break from the dogs squishing it. I honestly had zero expectations on these, and they BOTH picked them up on the first throw! That's huge!!
Seem to work fine in the ChuckIt.
As for the squeaker, at first I was like "Oh nooooo." when they both loudly started! Much to my (and my neighbors') happiness, the squeakers stopped working after a couple minutes. 🤣
