Kirkus Reviews Best Picture Book of 2018 School Library Journal Best Book of 2018 The Horn Book Best Picture Book of 2018 Shelf Awareness Best Children's Book of the Year A soccer story--for boy and girls alike--just in time for the World Cup "Vini Come The field calls " cries a girl as she and her younger brother rouse their community--family, friends, and the local fruit vendor--for a pickup soccer (futbol) game. Boys and girls, young and old, players and spectators come running--bearing balls, shoes, goals, and a love of the sport. "Friends versus friends" teams are formed, the field is cleared of cows, and the game begins But will a tropical rainstorm threaten their plans? The world's most popular and inclusive sport has found its spirited, poetic, and authentic voice in Baptiste Paul's debut picture book--highlighting the joys of the game along with its universal themes: teamwork, leadership, diversity, and acceptance. Creole words (as spoken in St. Lucia, the author's birthplace island in the Caribbean) add spice to the story and are a strong reminder of the sport's world fame. Bright and brilliant illustrations by debut children's book illustrator Jacqueline Alc ntara--winner of the We Need Diverse Books Illustration Mentorship Award--capture the grit and glory of the game and the beauty of the island setting where this particular field was inspired. Soccer fan or not, the call of The Field is irresistible.Binding Type: Hardcover

Didn’t last longer enough for “before” photos.
This toy lasted about 6secs period! I literally turned my back to grab my phone and when I turned around it was in about 30 pieces and I know for a fact (💩) that my dog swallowed some. Just a waste of money for me and my Labrador.

Decent product. Fun for dogs
Size: Dog Rope Toy - M
My dogs loved this toy so much that they ripped it just after a month use. So durability may be lacking a bit but my dogs loved it. The price can be less since it doesn’t last that long, it’s lightweight so it’s easy to throw, and super fun for dogs.

Fun tug toy that holds up well
Size: Dog Rope Toy - M
We got this rope tug toy for our dog and it’s been a hit. He loves playing tug of war and will happily drag this around the house looking for someone to play with. The rope is thick and feels like real cotton, not that super cheap stiff stuff. It has some give to it but still feels sturdy.
So far it has held up well to lots of chewing and tugging. Our dog isn’t a hardcore destroyer, but he definitely tests his toys, and this one is still in one piece. It’s also a nice size, not tiny, so it works well for medium and bigger dogs, but a smaller dog could still enjoy it.
Overall, it’s a simple toy that does what you want it to do. Keeps the dog busy, gives them something safe to chew on, and holds up better than most rope toys we’ve tried.

Red flag!!!
Size: Dog Rope Toy - M
Within an hour of giving this toy to my dog, she chewed off the plastic handle and the plastic ball. The worst part is that they came off in very small pieces, some like crumbles. This could have been a serious problem if I had not been watching her and able to take it away.
