A Robert F. Sibert Informational Book Honor Winner
At the outset of World War II, Denmark did not resist German occupation. Deeply ashamed of his nation's leaders, fifteen-year-old Knud Pedersen resolved with his brother and a handful of schoolmates to take action against the Nazis if the adults would not. Naming their secret club after the fiery British leader, the young patriots in the Churchill Club committed countless acts of sabotage, infuriating the Germans, who eventually had the boys tracked down and arrested. But their efforts were not in vain: the boys' exploits and eventual imprisonment helped spark a full-blown Danish resistance. Interweaving his own narrative with the recollections of Knud himself, The Boys Who Challenged Hitler is National Book Award winner Phillip Hoose's inspiring story of these young war heroes. This thoroughly-researched and documented book can be worked into multiple aspects of the common core curriculum.Binding Type: Hardcover

Puppy loves the toy! Great deal and product.
Color: Pink, Size: Small（6Pack）
Say hi to Daisy- a13 week year old pit. She absolutely loves the toys! She was using another chew toy and DESTROYED it so I needed a quick replacement. They’re very durable; however, she chipped one of the bones so I don’t anticipate it having TOO long of a life. For the price, it’s great and I recommend for any chewers you might have.

Love them
Color: Pink, Size: Small（6Pack）
Both of my dogs love chewing on this toy. In fact, I had to order a second one because they kept fighting over the first! It has definitely been a big hit with both of them. I have a Boston Terrier mix and Shitzu.

Cute but not for a strong chewer
Color: Pink, Size: Small（6Pack）, Color: Pink, Size: Small（6Pack）
My puppy loves all of these toys, as those one of my older dogs. They are adorable and a good size for a small medium puppy. I recommend them, but they can chew some of the small pieces/nubs/ends so just be careful.

Durable
This is a great toy! I have a heavy chewer that destroys other toys in seconds. I have had this for 6 months and it still looks new.
