The Adventures of Bill!

A series of law books for kids!

Law doesn’t need to be complicated. However, it is! In addition, ignorance of the law doesn’t exempt from responsibility. So why is the law not included as part of the primary education process in this country?

Friendly Law wants to change this dynamic as a means to break with the school to prison pipeline, and with many other social injustices and inequalities. And by buying one of our books, and integrating law as part of a kid’s learning process, you can be part of the change too!

Proceeds from the books will be used to help Friendly Law continue working on it’s mission and vision.

An here, you can donate, become a sponsor, or just get involved. You can be part of the change in many ways!

Formats - eBook and Paperback

English and Spanish

The United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC) requires education to enhance the cultural identity, language, and values of the child from which community it emerges. UNESCO suggested in its recommendation on participation in cultural life in 1976 the following:
“culture is not merely an accumulation of works and knowledge which an elite produces, collects and conserves in order to place it within the reach of all… [Rather], the concept of culture has been broadened to include all forms of creativity and expression of groups or individuals.”

Although the United States has signed the UNCRC, it is the only United Nations member state that is not a party to it. However, Friendly Law believes that as the leader of the free world, main driver of both democracy and globalization, and primary guarantor of the current global system, the United States should make a greater effort in making sure the people of the nation knows and understand their rights. Especially the children of the nation!

In the future days, which we seek to make secure, we look forward to a world founded upon four essential human freedoms.

The first is freedom of speech and expression—everywhere in the world.

The second is freedom of every person to worship God in his own way—everywhere in the world.

The third is freedom from want—which, translated into world terms, means economic understandings which will secure to every nation a healthy peacetime life for its inhabitants—everywhere in the world.

The fourth is freedom from fear—which, translated into world terms, means a world-wide reduction of armaments to such a point and in such a thorough fashion that no nation will be in a position to commit an act of physical aggression against any neighbor—anywhere in the world.

That is no vision of a distant millennium.

It is a definite basis for a kind of world attainable in our own time and generation.

That kind of world is the very antithesis of the so-called new order of tyranny which the dictators seek to create with the crash of a bomb.

Franklin D. Roosevelt, excerpted from the State of the Union Address to the Congress, January 6, 1941

(1) Everyone has the right to education. Education shall be free, at least in the elementary and fundamental stages. Elementary education shall be compulsory. Technical and professional education shall be made generally available and higher education shall be equally accessible to all on the basis of merit.

(2) Education shall be directed to the full development of the human personality and to the strengthening of respect for human rights and fundamental freedoms. It shall promote understanding, tolerance and friendship among all nations, racial or religious groups, and shall further the activities of the United Nations for the maintenance of peace.

(3) Parents have a prior right to choose the kind of education that shall be given to their children.

Universal Declaration of Human Rights, Article 26
