THE NO. 1 BESTSELLING, LIFE-CHANGING PHENOMENON – SUNDAY TIMES and NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER'A beautiful, gentle exploration of the dark season of life and the light of spring that eventually follows' RAYNOR WINN'My favourite book of the last five years' CAITLIN MORANWintering is a poignant and comforting meditation on the fallow periods of life, times when we must retreat to care for and repair ourselves. Katherine May thoughtfully shows us how to come through these times with the wisdom of knowing that, like the seasons, our winters and summers are the ebb and flow of life.

A moving personal narrative interwoven with lessons from literature, mythology and the natural world, May's story offers instruction on the transformative power of rest and retreat. Illumination emerges from many sources: solstice celebrations and dormice hibernation, C.S. Lewis and Sylvia Plath, swimming in icy waters and sailing arctic seas.

Ultimately, Wintering invites us to change how we relate to our own fallow times. May models an active acceptance of sadness and finds nourishment in deep retreat, joy in the hushed beauty of winter, and encouragement in understanding life as cyclical, not linear. A secular mystic, May forms a guiding philosophy for transforming the hardships that arise before the ushering in of a new season.

Not for small animals
I bought these for my ferret and even though it’s hard for her to pick up, they’re so cute and soft.

Squeaker Shenanigans!
I have four large dogs - 65-70 lbs, pittie babies. Three out of four love, love, LOVE squeaker toys. You can't keep a squeaker toy in my house to save your life. If it squeaks, it dies a quick squeaker death. We generally buy squeak toys at the Dollar Store. My going theory on toys is it has to last one minute per dollar I spend on it. Then I call it "worth the money." Right now, it is winter and where I live, so very cold. My kids can't get all their energy out by being outside, so we have to come up with creative indoor fun. I like these types of packs of toys, one for the value and two the quantity. I put all the toys in a box, and then my kids get to come up and pick one out of the box - they then run off for the squeaker toy of destruction fun! Squeak! Squeak! Squeak! Death. One kids goes right to hunting for where the squeaker is inside the toy, and the hunkers down to figure out how to get it out and kill it. She is usually the 60 seconds or less, 1st Place Squeaker Death Winner. The other two, will take their time and enjoy the squeaks and work the squeaker out until death finally takes it. My 70 lb boy, is kind of a baby, and after he neatly gets his squeaker out, he makes the toy his baby, and then carries it around proudly. Considering how large my kids are, these are well made and take the full minute for Squeaker of Death girl to get the squeaker out. The size is great, even for my larger dogs. I got nine toys for about $12 at the time of this purchase, and it was perfect. It did come with the storage bag...but not something that is necessary in this house. Although, it was actually quite nice, and I am sure I can use for something else. The Sun was a big hit, and despite not having its squeaker anymore, is still hanging around, days later. I will be buying this pack again.

Pom approved!
My pomeranian ONLY plays with small stuffies that squeak. She loves these and they are just small enough for her to hold and squeak. They are durable enough - but we will see when her big dog cousins come play with her, just how sturdy they are! They are very cute, soft, and squeak well. Good value for the pack of them.

Goldilocks of dog toys!
We recently rescued a small/medium bulldog breed (35lbs) and she *loves* toys. Problem was that our other dog's (75lbs) toys were too big. They literally were the size of her. We found that our new baby pooch was constantly raiding our cat's bed with the cat toys. They were more her size and she knew it. I bought her some cat toys (mostly mice with catnip inside and a yarn tail). She *loved* them, but they were too small. She would choke on them and I would literally have to pull them out of her throat by the mouse tail. Scared us too much so we gave (all 20) away to a friend. I scoured Amazon and found these whimsical toys and they are *JUST RIGHT*! Perfect size, have held up several days of chewing and gnawing, squeak pretty well, and my big dog also loves them! These deserve the 4.9 (5.0 but can't please everyone) rating that lead me to purchase them in the first place. Buy with confidence for your medium size (or any size really) fur baby!

Super Cute!!
These adorable toys are incredibly cute! My 9-week-old puppy absolutely loves them. There are so many different options that I can easily rotate them to keep him entertained and prevent boredom. So far, they have held up well against his teething, and I've even needed to wash a few of them in my washing machine due to potty training. They are perfect for small dogs and puppies and offer great value for the price.
