From Newbery Honor and National Book Award-winning author Polly Horvath comes this magical middle-grade novel about a garden that grants wishes.

It is World War II, and Franny and her parents, Sina and Old Tom, enjoy a quiet life on a farm on Vancouver Island. Franny writes, Sina sculpts, and Old Tom tends to their many gardens--including the ancient, mysterious night garden.

Their peaceful life is interrupted when their neighbor, Crying Alice, begs Sina to watch her children while she goes to visit her husband at the military base because she suspects he's up to no good. Soon after the children move in, letters arrive from their father that suggest he's about to do something to change their lives; and appearances from a stubborn young cook, UFOs, hermits, and ghosts only make life stranger. Can the forbidden night garden that supposedly grants everyone one wish help them all out of trouble? And if so, at what cost?

The Night Garden is a poignant and hilarious story from the acclaimed children's author of Everything on a Waffle.

"Horvath infuses her novel with such heart, zest, and humor in the small moments that she's created a book her devoted fan base will cherish. Notably, the denizens of Vancouver Island have a delicious lack of separation between adult and child--all are wholeheartedly curious, beautifully flawed, and deeply amusing." --Booklist, starred review

"Events glide from the domestic to offbeat to the supernatural without any friction, creating a world where anything is possible . . . A] story of community and love and families in all their messy glory." --The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books, starred review

Solid, Quality Construction at a Value
Style: Classic, Size: 26in
It's amazing how much fun my new puppy and I have been having with a single, vacuum-molded piece of plastic. I have a 4mo named Walter and getting a Chuckit® was always in the cards. 1: I didn't know how cheap they were, and 2: I didn't realize how much fun it makes fetch. Really small things like being able to pick up the ball with the Chuckit® without having to bend down was so surprising and makes fetch last longer for both of us. Another tip is that I had watched videos where they say the throwing technique is sort of a punch, or whip action; where you sort of wind-up, throw, and then jerk your hand back (like cracking a whip). I started doing that and it was fine, and working without problems. But then I thought, "I'm just going to launch this with one continuous movement". And WOW what a difference. If you have the space (a big field, basically), you don't need to modify your throw to a punch or whip type movement. Just launch it like you're casting a fishing pole, and end your motion with the Chuckit® pointing directly at where you're trying to throw it. The ball naturally flies out at about a 45 degree angle. High and far. You don't need to overthink it. Additionally, if I'm in my backyard (fenced with neighbors all around) and I can't go high and far, I just side-arm it. And the ball releases on it's own. No need to whip. Looking forward to my Pup growing up so we can play longer. Love this thing. Oh one more tip from my brother– he says a lacrosse ball fits perfectly in these things too if you have a dog that wants to destroy your tennis balls. Lacrosse balls are practically indestructible. Just make sure not to launch it on any surface that will bounce, or you'll never see it again. I'd buy this again in a heartbeat. For the price, stop thinking about it, buy it, and go play with your dog!

Superior quality
Style: Classic, Size: 26in
We have 2 Australian Shepherds that never get tired. The launcher is able to trow the ball very far and very durable. Dogs love the ball and they were not able to destroy it yet. We are very happy with our purchase.

Fetch? Yes please!
Style: Classic, Size: 26in
Great for fetch. Small learning curve to release the ball where you want. Good size for my dog. Comes with a felt ball which is just stupid for fetch--gets so dirty. I like the color, my dog can see blue and she loves when I bring it out. I broke my first one, snapped the neck, but these work great, fine price. The amount of joy my dog gets from it is worth every penny.

Function is great, a bit breakable
Style: Classic, Size: 26in
This is probably the 3rd or 4th of this we've bought which reflects pros and cons--it is a great thrower, easy to use and great for keeping your hands clean with a dog who loves to play fetch! The con is that they're a bit brittle. We've broken a couple just smacking the plastic against a sidewalk, so you just have to be a little careful. Our puppy chewed on another one and destroyed it, so you might want to keep it out of the reach of your dogs when you're not using it!

Best toy EVER for a very active dog!
Style: Classic, Size: 26in
This is the best item I've purchased for my young Mini Schnauzer. He absolutely loves that I can now pitch the tennis ball quite a ways and he gets loads of running time. He begs for me to use this toy for him . . . he LOVES it! Easy on the arm as well!
