My Name Is Tani . . . and I Believe in Miracles: The Amazing True Story of One Boy's Journey from Refugee to Chess ChampionA true story of sacrificing everything for family, living with nothing but hope, then sharing generously all they received to discover the greatest riches of all. Tani Adewumi didn't know what Boko Haram was or why they had threatened his family. All he knew was that when his parents told the family was going to America, Tani thought it was the start of a great adventure rather than an escape.

A true story of sacrificing everything for family, living with nothing but hope, then sharing generously all they received to discover the greatest riches of all. Tani Adewumi didn't know what Boko Haram was or why they had threatened his family. All he knew was that when his parents told the family was going to America, Tani thought it was the start of a great adventure rather than an escape. In truth, his family's journey to the United States was nothing short of miraculous--and the miracles were just beginning.Tani's father, Kayode, became a dishwasher and Uber driver while Tani's mother, Oluwatoyin, cleaned buildings, while the family lived in a homeless shelter. Eight-year-old Tani jumped into his new life with courage and perseverance--and an unusual mind for chess. After joining the chess club in his public school, Tani practiced his game for hours in the evenings at the shelter. And less than a year after he learned to play, Tani won the New York State chess championship. A young boy with an aptitude for chess? Absolutely. But if you ask Tani Adewumi, he will tell you he believes in miracles and one happened to him and his family. This story will inspire, delight, and challenge you to believe, too.

Great for playing fetch.
The hol-ee balls come in different sizes. I have an assortment. I love to stuff them with treats for my pet and watch him try to get them out. The holes make it easier for my dog to pick up the ball when we play fetch. I match the treat size with the hole size of each ball size. These are sturdy toys and can stand up to rough play.

Great turtle toy
Perfect toy! My pet turtle loves it. He likes dragging things around his tank and pushing them around. I got him this because his old toy was a pvc pipe connector (which he loved to death), but it broke his beak. So I got him this so he could chew it and drag it around. Great and safe alternative

Favorite ball!
My dog absolutely loves this ball. I have a 11 pound mini golden doodle for reference. It is super durable and easy to clean. It is easy for her to get her teeth around and is one thing she has not chewed up.

Sturdy and long lasting.
These balls are a favorite of my Sheltie! She loves to chase after them and catch them in the air. My dog is not a chewer so I can't say how they hold up under aggressive circumstances! They do last a long time .
