Review Quotes
"A visually adorable and joyful book full of inspiring and creative ideas for seeing, gathering, and experimenting. You will stay motivated to create for a long time!" -- Jennifer Orkin Lewis, artist and illustrator at augustwren.com "A great roadmap for getting started with journaling. These thoughtful writing prompts and playful art activities will inspire and engage!" -- Susan Schwake, best-selling author of Art Lab for Kids series "My family's favorite kind of any-age book. These friendly, fabulous, and imaginative prompts are great for journaling but they're also approachably small, stand-alone creative projects. You'll soon be busy charting your world of favorite things and places and words and dreams." -- Catherine Newman, author of Waiting for Birdy and Catastrophic Happiness "I dare you to make it halfway through this book without running to grab your journal and a pencil! This trove of inspiring and practical ideas encourages us to push our creative boundaries and revel in the play between words and pictures." -- Alexandra Kennedy, executive director of the Eric Carle Museum of Picture Book Art "Transcendent! At a time when all of us -- children and adults -- are deluged with pixels and information, Emily Neuburger inspires us to use a journal to notice, feel, connect, and reflect." -- Sam Intrator, professor of education and child study at Smith College
