Mr. Dickens and His Carol"A charming, comic, and ultimately poignant story about the creation of the most famous Christmas tale ever written. It's as foggy and haunted and redemptive as the original; it's all heart, and I read it in a couple of ebullient, Christmassy gulps."

"A charming, comic, and ultimately poignant story about the creation of the most famous Christmas tale ever written.

Laced with humor, rich historical detail from Charles Dickens' life, and clever winks to his work, Samantha Silva's Mr. Dickens and His Carol is an irresistible new take on a cherished classic. Charles Dickens is not feeling the Christmas spirit. His newest book is an utter flop, the critics have turned against him, relatives near and far hound him for money. While his wife plans a lavish holiday party for their ever-expanding family and circle of friends, Dickens has visions of the poor house. But when his publishers try to blackmail him into writing a Christmas book to save them all from financial ruin, he refuses. And a serious bout of writer's block sets in. Frazzled and filled with self-doubt, Dickens seeks solace in his great palace of thinking, the city of London itself. On one of his long night walks, in a once-beloved square, he meets the mysterious Eleanor Lovejoy, who might be just the muse he needs. As Dickens' deadlines close in, Eleanor propels him on a Scrooge-like journey that tests everything he believes about generosity, friendship, ambition, and love. The story he writes will change Christmas forever.Binding Type: Paperback

UPDATE TO MY REVIEW / It's NOT indestructible!
Color: Carrot Orange
UPDATE: I stand by my review for the original "Plush Toy". BUT ... the seller contacted me and offered to help, because they don't want their customers to be unhappy with their products. I described the problem, and they said they'd contact their supplier to correct things. AND ... they offered to send another dog toy that actually was indestructible.
My dog, a Border Collie - Retriever mix, loved the replacement they sent, an Orange Peanut. (He even took it to bed the first night.) This was much appreciated. But what I most appreciated was their Customer Service and Care. They don't just say they want their customers to be happy, they actually demonstrate it by their actions. This type of care is rare these days, and I commend them for it.
Notice I've changed my rating from 1-star to 5-stars, this is in recognition of their Customer Service. To me, this type of care is more important than any product.
So I now fully endorse this seller. If you have an issue with a product, just contact them (through Amazon), and they will do their utmost to make things right, and to make sure you're happy.
******************************************
I bought this because it was described as "Dog Plush Toy for Large Aggressive Chewers, Indestructible Dog Squeaky Toy" (from their listing on Amazon). My dog is a Golden Retriever mix, and he's only a "medium size aggressive chewer". And yet, this toy lasted 10 minutes at the most.
Very disappointing ... save yourself a "dog toy heartbreak".

Not indestructible however not terrible.
Color: Shocking Pink
Not indestructible however not terrible. My strong chewer had quickly devoured the plush stomach and eaten the squeaker. But the rope parts and rough face pieces are holding up well. Not a disaster.

Good toy but not indestructible
Color: Royal Blue
The toy is nice, but my dog killed it in about 30 minutes. The only reason I didn’t give it five stars is because it says indestructible Toy in the description. Other than that it is a nice chew toy.

Dog loves it. So 5 starts
Color: Carrot Orange
A great value toy that is very hard to destroy. Our dog usually runs through softer toys and this one has lasted a long time. Its not chewable like a plushy but harder fabric that doesn't rip apart. The dogs are having a blast with it. And so are we. The colors fit the description.
The size was idk 2ft ish. It met all expectations. I wouldn't expect to need more than one of them unless your dog is a super destroyer.
