From the prolific author of The Moon Within comes the heart-wrenchingly beautiful story in verse of a young Latinx girl who learns to hold on to hope and love even in the darkest of places: a family detention center for migrants and refugees.Nine-year-old Betita knows she is a crane. Papi has told her the story, even before her family fled to Los Angeles to seek refuge from cartel wars in Mexico. The Aztecs came from a place called Aztlan, what is now the Southwest US, called the land of the cranes. They left Aztlan to establish their great city in the center of the universe-Tenochtitlan, modern-day Mexico City. It was prophesized that their people would one day return to live among the cranes in their promised land. Papi tells Betita that they are cranes that have come home.
Then one day, Betita's beloved father is arrested by Immigration Customs Enforcement (ICE) and deported to Mexico. Betita and her pregnant mother are left behind on their own, but soon they too are detained and must learn to survive in a family detention camp outside of Los Angeles. Even in cruel and inhumane conditions, Betita finds heart in her own poetry and in the community she and her mother find in the camp. The voices of her fellow asylum seekers fly above the hatred keeping them caged, but each day threatens to tear them down lower than they ever thought they could be. Will Betita and her family ever be whole again?

Can be hard on teeth
Color: Green, Pattern Name: Multi Color
My dog likes these. I used to let her chew them all the time but after the Vet told me that something with a very hard plastic and break dog's teeth, I just fill these up with peanut butter and freeze them. Only give them to keep her occupied when I leave and can't take her along. So just be careful because of their teeth, and the edges so become hard and pokey when chewed on after time.

Indestructible
Color: Green, Pattern Name: Multi Color
Ordered these on a sale..I thought there were 4 bones, but only 2...I have 2 American bullies and 2 Micro bullies..All heavy chewers..These work perfectly for them and they love them...I actually had to order another pack full price so that there was 1 for each dog. Happy with my purchase, happier with the sale price but all 4 like them and can't destroy them so it's a good purchase.

My Pup Said No Thank You
Color: Green, Pattern Name: Multi Color, Color: Green, Pattern Name: Multi Color
⭐☆☆☆☆
My dog usually loves toys like this, so I was excited about them—especially since the colors were fun and it came as a pack of two. Unfortunately, my dog didn’t like these at all and kept choosing her older chew toys instead. They just didn’t hold her interest, which was disappointing. Overall, not worth the money for us.

Update after a week of having this toy
Color: Green, Pattern Name: Multi Color
I thought these were going to be more like a hard rubber but they are a very hard plastic.
Keeps my dog busy but best to be supervised while chewing on it.
I don’t let her have it when I’m not around so she doesn’t damage her teeth.
*UPDATE*
The dogs are absolutely obsessed with these toys.
I was worried at first it was going to hurt their teeth and gums but they don’t.
These have been a great addition to their millions of toys lol.
Very happy with my purchase
