Monthly Book Readings

Every month we will share and read a book with the FFF Kids' community. Our book readings will be recorded and available using this link: fffutu.re/KidsYoutube

Our monthly book readings will be announced on our social media sites and we encourage FFF Kids community to connect, discuss, and share about our monthly books at home, school, or on our FFF Kids blog forum!

Book readings will connect with our monthly challenges and are intended to help educate and empower younger generations.

Earth Friend Forever

A note from 🌎:
“Hi Friend,
It’s me, Earth! I hope you like living on me, but we need to talk.
I need your help to solve a BIG problem… You’re covering me with plastic!
But don’t worry, I know you’ve got my back — after all, you do live on it.
Love, Your Earth Friend Forever” 🌎

We Are All Connected

"We all live on one blue dot spinning in space.
We are all a part of one human race.

We are stronger together than we are apart."

When we celebrate differences, stand up for each other and work together, the world is a better place.
