She Didn't Mean To Do It"The poems successfully maintain a delicate balance, a unique and distinct interior logic." Philadelphia City Paper "The poems in Daisy Fried's first collection of poetry read like tough, urban fables. Formally innovative and thematically challenging, these poems traverse the geography of sex and teenage initiation rights . . . These poems resist being pinned down. They roam the pages in a kind of tight, disruptive free verse." Ploughshares "Fried
"The poems successfully maintain a delicate balance, a unique and distinct interior logic." --Philadelphia City Paper "The poems in Daisy Fried's first collection of poetry read like tough, urban fables. Formally innovative and thematically challenging, these poems traverse the geography of sex and teenage initiation rights . . . These poems resist being pinned down. They roam the pages in a kind of tight, disruptive free verse." --Ploughshares "Fried shows that poetry can be lyrical, bombastic, garrulous even, and still transport her readers." --Pittsburgh Tribune-Review "Maybe this is the book of the year, it has such range and it is so well-written, for her faithfulness to her emotion is matched by her carefulness of execution." --Thom Gunn "Fried's poetry attacks and attacks, and gets through. And when it does, it does because she jams the right words into a strikingly original order with ferocity, intelligence and dash." --August Kleinzahler "Of the urban landscape-its grit, power, ugly beauty, comedy and pain, Daisy Fried makes vital poetry." --Alicia Suskin Ostriker Daisy Fried, recipient of a Pew Fellowship in poetry, has published widely in journals, including American Poetry Review, Indiana Review, Antioch Review, Colorado Review, Ploughshares, and Threepenny Review. She has written articles and book reviews for Glamour, Philadelphia Magazine, Newsday, and Philadelphia Inquirer, among others, and has taught creative writing at Haverford College and Rutgers University. She holds a B.A. in English from Swarthmore College and lives in South Philadelphia.Binding Type: Paperback

Great Quality and durability

I have a teething puppy and this is the only ball that has outlasted the rest!! Big chewer and still bounces and no tears! Keeps him entertained for hours!! Sturdy, solid, good quality and value!

Durable, even for a Great Dane!
Color: Ultra, Size: XXL
I've bought many tennis ball sized ChuckIt balls in the past (for medium sized dogs we've owned), so when we knew we were going to be babysitting our daughter's Great Dane, I bought a bigger one for her. The 4" is perfect for her! She plays catch with it, but also likes to gnaw on it. It holds up great!

Another great product from Chuckit!
Color: Ultra, Size: XL
Exactly the high quality that I've come to expect from Chuckit! The plastic/rubber used in their products is extremely tough yet gives enough that it's hard to actually pierce the it and tear apart. We have had Chuckit! Sticks and Balls with launcher for years and love them all. This particular ball is pretty big so my 45 pound pit mix struggles to pick it up but that's part of the fun for him. My 85 pound pit mix can pick it up no problem. The only "complaint" is that the two of them have been having so much fun with their new ball, they have already knocked something over and broke it.

Perfect for my mid size pit bull
Color: Ultra, Size: XL
Updating my review, the ball only lasted 5 days. I left the 5 stars because we had enough fun those 5 days to be worth the small price. She has dog has a lot of jaw strength, so I’m not surprised
We have a mid size foster pit bull. This ball is her favorite toy. It’s durable and the perfect size for her to play ball safely.

Good quality
Color: Ultra, Size: Large, Color: Ultra, Size: Large
Great quality. I purchased for my daughter’s dog who destroys all toys. This toy holds up. I didn’t realize it was a large and the chickit stick she had was a medium. The large ball ended up working out good for playing inside the house. The dog likes it a lot.
