An exciting new collection of sublimely simple wisdom from a bestselling author, celebrated athlete, and a true American hero.

Three-time MVP and Hall of Famer Yogi Berra hit home runs twice in a row with his two previous books, The Yogi Book and It Ain't Over. Now, his winning streak will continue with this latest work -- a collection of appealing, funny, and surprisingly moving essays on life, happiness, and getting through the slumps. Filled with another delightful helping of Yogi's inimitable and unwittingly wise aphorisms, these reflections focus on the valuable lessons he's learned on and off the field. From his early years as an immigrant's son who dropped out of the eighth grade through his triumphant career as a player and manager who played in a record seventy-five World Series games, Yogi illustrates his homespun philosophies with apt analogies to his trove of baseball stories. He expounds on such topics as Patience (Waiting for your pitch); Sacrifice (Laying down a bunt); Trusting Others (Taking direction); and Staying Focused (Keeping your eye on the ball), to show how the rules of life and baseball are uncannily similar. And, in the tradition of Don't Sweat the Small Stuff and All I Really Need to I Know I Learned in Kindergarten, he explains his recipe for fulfillment and happiness with life lessons that are profoundly simple, simply profound--and classic Yogi to the core. Following on the heels of two New York Times bestselling books and filled with memorable photos, this new collection of Yogi wisdom will undoubtedly expand his growing legion of fans. When You Come to a Fork in the Road, Take It is a wise, humble, touching book that's a guaranteed winner. In short, it's D j vu all over again. A baseball legend reflects on the following lessons...
  • "A nickel ain't worth a dime any more."
  • "It ain't over til it's over."
  • "You can't think and hit at the same time."
  • "I didn't really say everything I said."
  • "The future ain't what it used to be."
. . . and many more.

Great interactive toy
Size: One Size
My overall rating is a 5 stars because our dog absolutely loves the toy! It is a great tug toy and "launching" toy for fetch... Although she doesn't quite grasp the return part of fetching. She'd rather play "case me if you want it back!" I wish I had a better video but didn't think of making one until we were pretty much done playing. But you can see she's been playing hard up until this clip and is still wanting to play more... I'm the one exhausted. The rope part of this toy is what takes playing fetch to another level. Give it a good wind-up and let it fly! The weight of the ball carries it really far and very fast! More than I expected based on other toys one purchased. The first launch almost went over back wall of our yard! Skye didn't mind cause the rope made it easy for her to find it in the ivy. She loves throwing it around up in the air and flinging it around like cats throw their toys around. The ONLY issue is, of course is the durability. This toy is meant to be an interactive toy only. Once you're done playing, put it away if you want it to last. Especially if you have a dog that chews everything. It IS well made and of nice material, but no toy will survive her chewing skills. She'd have the rope chewed off in minutes. So it's up to the owner to keep this toy safe! If your dog isn't a chewer....I envy you and this toy will last a really long time! I would definitely recommend this toy for water or beach play as well. It's a big ball, but the rope and the groves in the ball make it very easy for her to grab. And if you don't want to use the rope to play, it fits into the groves around the ball and hooks into place. But honestly, we will never use that feature, the rope is the best part in my HER opinion! Definitely recommend and I'm going to buy more! I'm not thrilled with the price but everything is expensive these days,and if it's taken care of, it will last a long time.

Our Frenchie loves this toy
Size: One Size
Our Frenchie loves to pull and tug. She also loves to run after balls. The two in one makes it the perfect toy for her. We've been using it for over 8 months and while it does have some wear and tear... it's lasted a lot longer than her other today. She likes to grab the rope and run around the grass (sometimes getting too excited and tripping over the ball). As soon as we have to throw this one away... there's no doubt we are getting another one.

This is perfect for puppies. And small to medium dogs without strong biting jaws
Size: One Size
My border collie loved this as a puppy but wore out the rope. I got her another now that she is a year old and she loves it still but the rope showed wear almost immediately. She runs dragging it behind her and watching it bounce and she also swings it back and forth banging it on her head often but, it's so lightweight I don't worry that she's doing any harm to herself.
