A New York Times Best Illustrated Book From highly acclaimed author Jenkins and Caldecott Medal-winning illustrator Blackall comes a fascinating picture book in which four families, in four different cities, over four centuries, make the same delicious dessert: blackberry fool. This richly detailed book ingeniously shows how food, technology, and even families have changed throughout American history. In 1710, a girl and her mother in Lyme, England, prepare a blackberry fool, picking wild blackberries and beating cream from their cow with a bundle of twigs. The same dessert is prepared by an enslaved girl and her mother in 1810 in Charleston, South Carolina; by a mother and daughter in 1910 in Boston; and finally by a boy and his father in present-day San Diego. Kids and parents alike will delight in discovering the differences in daily life over the course of four centuries. Includes a recipe for blackberry fool and notes from the author and illustrator about their research.Binding Type: Hardcover

Helps With Teeth Cleaning
Size: Small, Style: Beef
Our dog loves chewing on this toy multiple times a day. I believe it helps with teeth cleaning. As we do not brush or add additives to water or food for teeth cleaning. Seems that vet is not suggesting to have teeth cleaned every visit anymore. The rubber is very durable. Last about 6 to 7 months before we start to see deterioration and have to replace.

My dog's favorite rubber toy
Size: Small, Style: Beef
One of my dog's favorite ever toys!! She is obsessed with everything playology but she never gets tired of the squeaky bones and the nubby bones. My only word of caution is to know your dog and if they're a big chewer be careful they dont eat pieces. She'll chew off chunks and spit them out.
