Balzac: A LifeHonore de Balzac was one of the greatest storytellers who ever lived, and now at last he has a biography that tells his story in a way Balzac himself would have loved with all the ambiguities, the flaws, the illusions and myths, the realities of street and salon, the loves and affairs, and above all the imperishable stories that still have the power to make us laugh out loud in one minute and weep in the next.

Honore de Balzac was one of the greatest storytellers who ever lived, and now at last he has a biography that tells his story in a way Balzac himself would have loved with all the ambiguities, the flaws, the illusions and myths, the realities of street and salon, the loves and affairs, and above all the imperishable stories that still have the power to make us laugh out loud in one minute and weep in the next. Robb has given us a splendid tale, meticulously researched, lovingly put together, and beautifully told. Those who know Balzac will not be able to put his book down; those who don t know him will rush from this biography to the literary treasures created by the writer Robb describes for us in prose that does justice to its subject. Richard Marius, author of Thomas More: A Biography

Great dog toy
Size: 8 Inch, Color: Pink
The amount of stupid and cute these dogs look like when they shake this ball and smack their own faces! It took a hot second for either dog to understand where to bite on the ball, but now that they do, they both will play with it for a while. Great purchase, came with a pump to blow the ball up.

Love these! They are good quality and my dogs love them so much actually I ordered a second set for my sister's dogs and they love them as well! Great buy for the price! I'm sure I will be buying some more but thankfully it isn't one week later because they are sturdy!

Heavy chewers can't break these alone.
Style: 5 Pcs No Stuffing Basic
These toys are AWESOME! As long as you don't get tricked into playing tug of war with them, they will last a very long time (almost 2 months) with a heavy chewer that tears through most toys in a couple hours. The tug pressure rips a seam. Then, that portion is a goner. However, the rest of the toy stays intact.

Well made & my dog LOVES them!
Style: 5 Pcs No Stuffing Basic
Great value for FIVE very cute and well made stuff-less toys with crinkly paper inside and TWO squeakers each. My dog loves playing with them! I have two in his toy box and put three up to save for later for backup if/when he destroys the first two. 😂 I love the cute and unique designs of the squirrel, donkey, fox, cow, and giraffe, too.
