What is Africa's own "heart of darkness"? It is what confronts Ayan when, after three years abroad, she returns to the Central African village of her birth. Now an "outsider" with foreign ways distrusted by her fellow villagers, she must face alone the customs and superstitions that bind this clan of men and women. When invading militia organize a horrific ceremony that they claim will help reunite Africa, Ayan is forced to confront the monstrosity of the act that follows, as well as the responsibility that all the villagers must bear for silently accepting evil done in their name. Through Ayan 's unwilling witness, L onora Miano probes the themes of submission and responsibility and questions the role of Africans in the suffering of their fellows. Also exploring African identity, Dark Heart of the Night is a profoundly disturbing novel in its evocation of the darkest side of people driven by their instinct to survive.Binding Type: Paperback

Absorbent but sometimes no indicator.
So sometimes I get the diapers with the indicator stripe and sometimes I get the nice decorative Sesame Street kind that has no clear indicator. Either way no complaints. Haven't had a blowout yet on any size.
Tips on preventing blowouts:
1. Make sure you have the right size!
2. Make sure put the diaper on right. (Squirmy kid)
3. Make sure the diaper flares are out around the thighs.
4. Make sure you change the diaper often enough.
5. Too much desitin can make blowouts happen more often.

Just OK
Not too impressed. Thickness is good but I don't like the smell and the fibers/lints it leaves on my baby's skin. I like other brands better.

Great water flosser
Color: Pink+purple
Got it for my 10 year old with braces and it works great! She even takes it to sleepovers! It’s so portable and the travel safe design is great. It’s a very reasonable price as well. Would highly recommend

Works great.
Color: Blue+red
I love how easy this children’s dental floss is. My child with ASD is able to use with little to no help. it’s been years trying to get my child with sensory sensitivities to floss or brush teeth without a HUGE STRUGGLE, however this is very gentle and something that makes our oral health care routine smoother. ( if you know, you know!!) It is very similar to the viral “ usmile” adult version water flossers. My only complaint/issue with this is that it collapse pretty easily and sometimes it’s hard to keep in the locked position while flossing teeth. Overall a good product, and recommend.?
