Description:
"What's the point of being Irish anyway if you don't think the world will break your heart?" asks Jack Kennedy. He is spellbound by a song about Ireland's neverland of dreams: "How Are Things in Glocca Morra?"
No one better knew the real JFK's dreams and passions than Lem Billings, a prep-school roommate who made himself "sidekick everlasting." The late Peter Collier had the great fortune to obtain oral histories from Billings himself, and they became the basis for a vivid biographical novel in Lem's voice.
On assignment with the Hearst newspapers, Jack goes with Lem to Hollywood, that neverland of dreams he loves for "the feeling that something might happen." Things do. Communists and gangsters vie for control of the film industry. There are labor strikes, blackmail, assassinations. And there are glamorous actresses. Joseph Kennedy Sr. hovers oppressively over his son and aims to derail his romance with Valentina, survivor of an Italian prison camp and daughter of a mobster.
The world breaks Jack's heart, and he dives into politics with steely purpose. But the interlude in Hollywood sends ripples through the Kennedys' lives. When Lem gets the news of JFK's assassination, he instantly thinks of Val's father-a man whose middle name is vendetta.
Billings never got the answers he sought about Jack's death. As for his intimate knowledge of the Kennedys, he remained ever discreet, but left a trove of recollections to be opened by a later generation. Channeled through Collier's lively and imaginative prose, they illuminate shadowy corners of an extraordinary American saga.

A great top & very sturdy!
Style: Fish
Beau was a little shy with the fish at first but now he loves it! I have had a “million laughs”. This is my second fish - present for my “grand dog” at X-mas. They are very study and holds up very well. Really a nice toy!

So cute, my dog loves it
Style: Lobster
My dog (15 lb Morkie) loves this toy. It was his gift for Christmas. My little guy is like a child, he gets so excited when he gets new toys.
I can’t speak much on durability because my dog isn’t known to destroy toys. But in our case, it’s still in great condition.
I love the charging feature. We had a previous toy that required batteries and it was a pain. I keep the charging cord tucked inside the toy pocket so it doesn’t get lost.
It’s also motion activated, so if someone walks by it, it will began wiggling. Although I’m starting to wonder if my house is haunted because the toy will turn on by itself.

Amazingly Tough!
Style: Whale
This is one of our pup’s favorite toys, so much so that we always have a couple around. So far, our very-active, very destructive, deaf mixed-breed puppy has only managed to destroy one. And it was the plushie that failed, not the mechanism. Only reason I subtracted a star is that I’ve gotten a couple where the sensitivity is set WAY too high, as in, maybe it’s cosmic rays, setting it off? But other than that, great toy for a dog with high prey-drive.
