Former enslaved person Mary Prince's powerful rallying cry for emancipation and extraordinary testament to survival

The History of Mary Prince (1831) was the first narrative of a black woman to be published in Britain. It describes Prince's sufferings as a slave in Bermuda, Turks Island and Antigua, and her eventual arrival in London with her brutal owner Mr Wood in 1828. Prince escaped from him and sought assistance from the Anti-Slavery Society, where she dictated her remarkable story to Susanna Strickland (later Moodie). A moving and graphic document, The History drew attention to the continuation of slavery in the Caribbean, despite an 1807 Act of Parliament officially ending the slave trade. It inspired two libel actions and ran into three editions in the year of its publication.

Best nail clipper for toenails
Color: Green, Color: Green
Great product! Nail clippers and scissors are small enough to use on a newborn / infant especially the toes. It’s been so hard to cut her toenails with other products we bought but these work really well AND they’re cute

Perfect Baby Nail Kit – Everything You Need in One Set
Color: Green
I absolutely love the YIVEKO Baby Nail Kit! It’s a complete 4-in-1 set that comes with baby nail clippers, scissors, a nail file, and tweezers, all neatly packed in a cute owl-shaped case. It’s everything I needed for my little one’s nail care, and the tools are all designed specifically for babies, making them gentle and easy to use. The clippers and scissors are sharp enough to trim nails cleanly without being too harsh, and the tweezers are perfect for gently removing any little hangnails or bits of dirt. I also really appreciate the nail file, which helps smooth out any rough edges. The case is adorable and keeps everything organized, which is a nice bonus. This kit is perfect for newborns, infants, toddlers, and kids, and I highly recommend it to any parent looking for an all-in-one, safe nail care set!

Adorable Set with Holder
Color: Green
Absolutely a cute addition to a woodland forest themed nursery. I put this, along with other things into a bear basket for a baby shower gift. I love the little owl holder which keeps everything in one place and organized. Such a useful gift with a sweet appearance.
