The rights of children—and of all living things—begin in small places, close to home.

This is a poetic and moving adaptation of U.N. Universal Declaration of Human Rights in honor of its seventy-fifth anniversary.

In backyards and city parks, in school and at home—wherever and however we move through this world, we have certain inalienable rights—and it’s up to each one of us to ensure those rights for others, too.

The Universal Declaration of Human Rights, drafted by Eleanor Roosevelt and signed on December 10, 1948, marked the first time that countries agreed on a comprehensive statement of inalienable human rights. This gorgeous adaptation for children reminds us that universal rights begin in small places, close to home.

We all deserve to live free,

to feel safe,

to belong,

to learn,

to dream.

Small Places Close to Home is part of a curated collection of books selected in partnership with and the generous support of . The Greatest Eight is an innovative, evidence- informed initiative designed to teach eight core skills to children 0-8 for a lifetime of mental wellness.

Today we visited in Providence for a book-making workshop! The students created their own books for their babies and discussed the ways books can used as part of a daily routine- from bedtime stories to playful moments throughout the day. We are so proud of of these moms and the love, thoughtfulness and creativity they put into these beautiful books! 📚 ❤️ ✨
