Our Earth seen from space resembles a big blue marble. Approaching earth, it is a vastness of oceans and gardens with a few deserts thrown in for variety. Beautiful! But at a closer look the garden planet is in trouble.

Millions are hungry, animals are endangered, the water is dirty. Is this what you want your children to inherit as their future and their children’s future?

Unfortunately, it is all too easy for us to feel that there are too many problems and that there is nothing a single person can do to make a difference. Big Blue Marble books addresses this hopeless feeling by teaching children and the adults that love them that everyone can make a difference in a lot of little ways, whether it is recycling a plastic water bottle, picking up trash on the beach or simply collecting coins to save up for a donation to your favorite cause. The first book in our series “Save Coins for Causes” is Let’s Make a Difference: We Can Help Orangutans. It will be available in a bookstore near you this fall.

Big Blue Marble, a 501©3 nonprofit organization, cares about the Earth and cares about our children’s future. Big Blue Marble also knows that kids need good role models and engaging opportunities to bring out the best in them. Our Let’s Make A Difference books Little Hands Going Green, Little Hands Helping Our Planet, Let’s Help Save Our Water provide children role models who are recycling, reusing, and reducing along with water conservation. These books will be available in the near future.

Also coming available will be environmental education books for the young child including an ocean trilogy and books about our forests and our environment. In alignment with Big Blue Marble’s concern for our endangered species, future book topics will include, whales, tigers, birds, elephants, butterflies, spiders, gorillas and many of the other endangered species on our planet.

Big Blue Marble has also embarked on the creation of a series of books which will include healthy food, water and living, natural ways of healing and being in harmony with life. All of our books provide children with basic principles of a healthy, happy life, and ways to attain it.
