A bestseller in the author's native country of Estonia, where the book is so well known that a popular board game has been created based on it, The Man Who Spoke Snakish is the imaginative and moving story of a boy who is tasked with preserving ancient traditions in the face of modernity. Set in a fantastical version of medieval Estonia, The Man Who Spoke Snakish follows a young boy, Leemet, who lives with his hunter-gatherer family in the forest and is the last speaker of the ancient tongue of snakish, a language that allows its speakers to command all animals. But the forest is gradually emptying as more and more people leave to settle in villages, where they break their backs tilling the land to grow wheat for their "bread" (which Leemet has been told tastes horrible) and where they pray to a god very different from the spirits worshipped in the forest's sacred grove. With lothario bears who wordlessly seduce women, a giant louse with a penchant for swimming, a legendary flying frog, and a young charismatic viper named Ints, The Man Who Spoke Snakish is a totally inventive novel for readers of David Mitchell, Sj n, and Terry Pratchett.Binding Type: Paperback

Perfect bean bag
Color: Leopard Print Brown, Size: Large(38"x38"x40")
I bought some of the foam filler to go in it but it wasn't enough; However, if you have spare blankets, out of season clothes or anything that's cloth you can fill this up with it! Helps with storage as i rotate my clothes and blankets. It looks great in my room, soft and high quality. And it's easy to wash and clean HOWEVER with the foam, i would recommend a mesh bag so when you have to wash it, you don't get foam everywhere.

Beautiful cow print chair

Even better than expected and very well made. It’s perfect for a barn theme. I only wish it had the filled bean bag inside as an option.

Soft, Warm, lightweight, Cozy
Color: Cream, Size: Full/Queen
When I first received this blanket I washed it by itself in cold water with detergent. I did not use a fabric softener or a fabric sheet. I air dried it completely and then put it in my dryer on air fluff for 10 minutes. No shedding and it came out just like I received it. I was concerned about shedding with some of the reviews but I had no issues with that whatsoever. It's warm yet lightweight. I didn't want anything that would make me overly hot because I'm always hot anyway. It takes that cool edge off when you still want your overhead fan on. My daughter said she likes it better than the one she has. I can't remember the brand. I feel it has a good quality. Just make note to wash it as instructed and it'll hold up well and look just as nice as the way you bought it. I'm not sure how the other reviewers that didn't leave 5 stars washed there's, but it couldn't have been the correct way.

Soft, warm, sometimes shed
Color: Shadow Grey, Size: Full/Queen
LOVE these blankets! The only downside is some of them shed. They will keep you so warm and they are very soft.
