The extraordinary writings of Phillis Wheatley, a slave girl turned published poet In 1761, a young girl arrived in Boston on a slave ship, sold to the Wheatley family, and given the name Phillis Wheatley. Struck by Phillis' extraordinary precociousness, the Wheatleys provided her with an education that was unusual for a woman of the time and astonishing for a slave. After studying English and classical literature, geography, the Bible, and Latin, Phillis published her first poem in 1767 at the age of 14, winning much public attention and considerable fame. When Boston publishers who doubted its authenticity rejected an initial collection of her poetry, Wheatley sailed to London in 1773 and found a publisher there for Poems on Various Subjects, Religious and Moral. This volume collects both Wheatley's letters and her poetry: hymns, elegies, translations, philosophical poems, tales, and epyllions--including a poignant plea to the Earl of Dartmouth urging freedom for America and comparing the country's condition to her own. With her contemplative elegies and her use of the poetic imagination to escape an unsatisfactory world, Wheatley anticipated the Romantic Movement of the following century. The appendices to this edition include poems of Wheatley's contemporary African-American poets: Lucy Terry, Jupiter Harmon, and Francis Williams.

A Huge Hit in My Bully Breed House!
Color: Green, Pattern Name: Hammerhead Shark
I have a house full of bully breeds, and this hammerhead shark toy is by far one of their favorites.
I’ve actually bought a few of them so there are extras around the house — otherwise they’d all be fighting over the same one! That alone tells you how much they love it. The shape makes it easy for them to grab, chew, and toss around, and the squeaker keeps them interested without being obnoxiously loud.
What really impressed me is the durability. My dogs are serious chewers, and we’ve had these for a while now. They’re still going strong, which is saying a lot in this house. The combination of rubber and nylon seems to hold up really well to heavy chewing.
The bacon scent definitely helps keep their attention, and I like that I can add a little peanut butter for extra enrichment. It keeps them busy and off my furniture — always a win.
If you have strong chewers, especially bully breeds, this one is absolutely worth picking up. Durable, fun, and clearly dog-approved in this house.

Finally a Toy My Aggressive Chewer Can’t Destroy
Color: Green, Pattern Name: Hammerhead Shark
My dog is an extremely aggressive chewer, and finding toys that last more than a few minutes has always been a challenge. Most toys are destroyed almost immediately, but this one has held up incredibly well. He chews on it constantly, and it still hasn’t been destroyed!

A Green Hard Plastic Sea Creature? Chew Toy
Color: Green, Pattern Name: Hammerhead Shark
This is a sturdy chew for my 40 lb retriever who is 9 months old. BUT after she has been chewing on it there are sharp edges which hurt my fingers when she wants me to throw it.
It is strong and she enjoys it, so she can continue as long as she wants but, If it cuts her tongue or mouth it’s gone.
