Purchase a copy of Seeds of Hope
Seeds of Hope: A Message From Young Voices in the Aftermath of September 11 is a collection of poems and artwork from young students in
the New York area and a touching memoir of the tragic events of
September 11, 2001. Even through that terrible tragedy, these children
cling to the hop for a world where all can live in peace and harmony.
Our young authors and artists invite us to see the tragedy through their
eyes, and they show that love, peace, freedom, hope, friendship,
respect and understanding have survived the confusion and pain of
September 11.
By purchasing a copy of Seeds of Hope, you are also donating a portion of the proceeds to the Fresh Air Fund.
