The author of the runaway bestseller How the Irish Saved Civilization has done it again. In The Gifts of the Jews Thomas Cahill takes us on another enchanting journey into history, once again recreating a time when the actions of a small band of people had repercussions that are still felt today.The Gifts of the Jews reveals the critical change that made western civilization possible. Within the matrix of ancient religions and philosophies, life was seen as part of an endless cycle of birth and death; time was like a wheel, spinning ceaselessly. Yet somehow, the ancient Jews began to see time differently. For them, time had a beginning and an end; it was a narrative, whose triumphant conclusion would come in the future. From this insight came a new conception of men and women as individuals with unique destinies--a conception that would inform the Declaration of Independence--and our hopeful belief in progress and the sense that tomorrow can be better than today. As Thomas Cahill narrates this momentous shift, he also explains the real significance of such Biblical figures as Abraham and Sarah, Moses and the Pharaoh, Joshua, Isaiah, and Jeremiah.
Full of compelling stories, insights and humor, The Gifts of the Jews is an irresistible exploration of history as fascinating and fun as How the Irish Saved Civilization.

Tiny
Color: Yellow - Fried Chicken Leg
Was disappointed. The toy is tiny. I don’t think a puppy could use it. The design was great, except for the size.

I have an old gentle dog who can’t chew on hard toys so he enjoys soft toys. This chicken drumstick is soft, squeaky, and cute!

doggy toy chicken leg
Color: Yellow - Fried Chicken Leg
I bought this chicken leg toy for my dog and it quickly became one of his favorites. The yellow top part has two different sections — the very top makes a crinkly sound like paper when he bites it, and the middle squeaks when he chews or presses on it, which really keeps him interested. The white bottom part is super soft and easy for me to hold, so it’s great for playing tug or just interacting with him. The size is perfect for small dogs, but it might feel a bit small for larger breeds — that said, the material quality is really nice. Overall, it feels well made, fun, and keeps my dog entertained without getting bored. Definitely a good buy.

Fun, engaging, and cute toy for dogs!
Color: Yellow - Fish Skewer, Color: Yellow - Fish Skewer
I got the fried fish toy for my dog. So far, he really enjoys the squeaking noise and comes running every time he hears it. The toy material is pretty thick and is holding up well during playtime. The size of this toy is perfect for my small dog but it might be a bit small for larger dogs.
Overall it's a fun and super cute toy for my pets that's become a favorite!
