Description:
A young girl imagines a grand future for herself, far from the drab British suburbs. Two friends, once inseparable, find their connection gradually slipping away. Three women discuss how life in the big city makes them feel seen ? or invisible. In a series of interconnected vignettes, It's Not What You Thought It Would Be explores the circuitous paths lives can take and the changes in perspective gained along the way.
In a series of interconnected vignettes, Stewart focuses on the ordinary, slice-of-life moments ? teenagers climbing up and lounging on a rooftop, friends catching up over pints at the pub, a woman riding the night bus home ? and charges these scenes with a quiet intensity. Through keen observation and an ear for naturalistic dialogue, she reveals the complex natures of her characters, from their confidence to their insecurities, as they experience the joys and pains of growing up. Drawn in a variety of different styles, from watercolor to colored pencil to pen and ink, the style of this book echoes the evolution of the characters within.

Great!
Color: Pink, Color: Pink
Perfect for my small poodle mixes (13 lbs and 18 lbs). My dog (the one pictured) was able to solve this fairly quickly, but nonetheless it is amazing that she’s still taking the time to sniff and eat slowly. What I like is that even when she’s done, she goes back and re-sniffs and double checks in case she missed anything. It seems good quality so far and it’s been very easy to both set up and wash! Would definitely purchase again and would definitely recommend!

Stimulating for Dogs
Color: Pink
I use this for my blind and deaf dog. I crumble up small bits of treats and snacks in each compartment for her. I thought this would keep her busy for a while, but she figured it out quickly.
The compartments are easy to load, but you need to break up the food or treats into small pieces. If the pieces are too large, they shift during loading and jam the slides. When the slides get jammed, it is hard for my dog to move them around and get to each compartment. She then starts chewing on the slides to get them to move. So far, she hasn't damaged the slides.
The ones in the middle spin in a circle, so once she learned that, she breezes through those. She uses her nose to spin them in one direction to get to each compartment. The ones on the outside can be loaded on either side. She learned she has to push or pull those with her nose. It isn't much of a challenge for her, but she loves discovering the treats inside each section. The back has rubber feet, which keep it from sliding too much on the floor.
It is well-made and durable.
I hand-wash it. It is easy to clean out each section. It is exactly what I was looking for, and the pricing is excellent! I only wish she weren't so good at it and it kept her busy longer.

Great size for puppy size vs big dogs
Color: Pink
Dog's a nuisance, but fun. -5min after eating poops. This game wasn't a lot of food, but same result. I won't bore you w/a 2min video. But this was so much fun. Others I saw were bigger looking & this breed needs everything bigger. But for now it was the perfect distraction.. & it helps in training him to use his senses

Nice item, good for small dogs/puppies
Color: Pink
Fun toy, easy to inbox, all the pieces were there, nothing missing. Kept my Dachshund girl busy hunting treats. The size makes me think it’s good for smaller dogs or puppies, this is not a large item. Would buy again, would recommend
