A few children in this generation only knows Mary Slessor as the woman who stopped the killing of twins. But none of them knows a tip of the legendary bravery, suffering, determination, perseverance, and the jagged rocks of self-sacrifice upon which Mary Slessor lived in Calabar. Here was a woman who laid down her life for the freedom and happiness of people who were in no way related to her. This book, though only a condensed chronicle for young readers, is also a challenge to everyone that the real worth of lifeis not all about how much we can get, but how much we can give.
