Anne and Charles: Passion and Politics in Late Medieval FranceWhen Anne of Brittany's father dies in 1488, the eleven year old beauty becomes Duchess of Brittany, her country's ruler. For the next three years, the orphaned, unmarried young duchess is relentlessly pursued by suitors while Brittany is invaded by France, its larger, more powerful neighbor. With no other way out, at age fourteen she agrees to marry King Charles VIII of France, in order to save her country. Better to be a queen than a prisoner

When Anne of Brittany's father dies in 1488, the eleven-year-old beauty becomes Duchess of Brittany, her country's ruler. For the next three years, the orphaned, unmarried young duchess is relentlessly pursued by suitors while Brittany is invaded by France, its larger, more powerful neighbor. With no other way out, at age fourteen she agrees to marry King Charles VIII of France, in order to save her country. Better to be a queen than a prisoner...

Unexpectedly, a passionate relationship ensues. Yet Charles cannot shake the bad habits he has brought into their marriage, and Anne cannot help him in his darkest area of struggle.

Together, they introduce the wonders of the Italian Renaissance to France, building one of Europe's most glorious 15th-century courts at their royal residence in Amboise, in the heart of the Loire Valley.

But year after year they fail to achieve the most important aim they must accomplish in order to secure the future of their kingdom. As they desperately attempt to make their shared dream come true, an unexpected twist of fate irrevocably changes the fortunes of both Anne and Charles.

Anne & Charles is Book One of the Anne of Brittany Series, the tale of the only woman in history to be twice-crowned queen of France. Publishers Weekly says "comparable titles are Philippa Gregory's Plantagenet and Tudor Novels." (Booklife, April 23, 2018)

Pricey otherwise enjoyable
Color: Red
Ball is made of a durable type material kinda like a foam only not chewable, at least not yet Very entertaining and has a whining noise, it does bounce a little bit and moves somewhat when nudged by dog. Bouncy. Not a very high bounce so it keeps close to ground. The ball was fully charged when it arrived and has entertained her for about an hour now that she has settled down so it did what I hoped it would do, to keep herself busy to the point of being tired. At best I would not leave this lying around for heavy chewing use only for entertainment or play time.

Mostly Good toy. Could be great.
Color: Blue
The ball looks well made and the dog absolutely loves it. He can't stop playing with it. It's awsome to see. The only problem, abd it's a big one, is that we can't open the ball to turn it off. The two halves are stuck together and don't budge. I'll wait until battery dies and try then.

Entertaining
Color: Blue
This smart ball is a great toy for your dog. It’s the perfect size for most dogs and it’s made of durable material that chewing doesn’t hurt. It’s easy to charge and will run for hours. It’s very quiet and has 3 modes of play to choose from, rolling, bouncing or a combination of both to keep them (and you) entertained for hours.
