A National Book Foundation 5 Under 35 Honoree Winner of the Frank O'Connor International Short Story Award, the Guardian First Book Award, and the Rooney Prize for Irish Literature Enter the small, rural town of Glanbeigh, a place whose fate took a downturn with the Celtic Tiger, a desolate spot where buffoonery and tension simmer and erupt, and booze-sodden boredom fills the corners of every pub and nightclub. Here, and in the towns beyond, the young live hard and wear the scars. Amongst them, there's jilted Jimmy, whose best friend Tug is the terror of the town and Jimmy's sole company in his search for the missing Clancy kid; Bat, a lovesick soul with a face like "a bowl of mashed up spuds" even before Nubbin Tansey's boot kicked it in; and Arm, a young and desperate criminal whose destiny is shaped when he and his partner, Dympna, fail to carry out a job. In each story, a local voice delineates the grittiness of post boom Irish society. These are unforgettable characters rendered through silence, humor, and violence. Told in Barrett's vibrant, distinctive prose, Young Skins is an accomplished and irreverent debut from a singular new voice in contemporary fiction.Binding Type: Paperback

Great value for money
Set name: Stuffed Animal Dog Toy Set (5 Pcs)
Toys are so cute and pretty durable for my puppy, much better and cheaper than toys from pets' stores.

Good stuffies for my Goldie.
Set name: Stuffed Animal Dog Toy Set (5 Pcs)
My dog is a heavy chewer so I don’t expect things to last long with him. But with that being said, he actually doesn’t go too hard on these stuffies and loves each and every one. Will they stand up to aggressive chewing? No they are stuffies. But for this price and for the quality, they are worth it for sure. Sometimes they don’t always squeak but I’m ok with that, because the constant squeaking can drive you crazy. I have a golden who can shove 3 of these in his big mouth but truly, one fits just fine. They are good sized for big dogs, it’s just that mine prefers to have his mouth stuffed like a chipmunk. He loves these stuffies and we will be ordering more for his endless toy box that I didn’t know I needed!

Good for puppies or dogs with little to no teeth!
Set name: Stuffed Animal Dog Toy Set (5 Pcs)
Good for the most part. Definitely not made for a heavy chewer! My dog shredded all 5 plushies within a couple days. Lol She got a hold of 2 them the first night and we woke up to a plushie crime scene. Fluff was everywhere and the squeakers were in pieces in the middle. The toys were unrecognizable, and no one could possibly have identified their intended animal shapes. Our silly girl was laying next to the massacred toys with what could only be described as a prideful grin.

Great assortment to keep the dog running
Set name: Stuffed Animal Dog Toy Set (5 Pcs)
My Jack Russell Terrier mix is madly in love with these squeaky toys. Every morning when he gets up he demands to have at least 4 throws of these as part of his morning ritual now. He loves them, and they seem well sewn and will last him quite a long time (but he has only a couple teeth), and they are washable which this dog mom likes. A good investment for my JRT mix.

Doggo Fun
Set name: Stuffed Animal Dog Toy Set (5 Pcs)
My dogs like these they were just smaller then I thought. They are made for medium dogs. Our big doggo can put the whole thing in her mouth. The squeek isn't too annoying and the overall make of the toy is nice. If you have a doggo that likes to attack and get the squeeker out this toy isn't a match for them. They will distroy it in minutes. If you have a dog that loves to just carry stuffies then these are good for them.
