A Year In My Life

See Inside the Books - Titles Beginning with A, , ,

A kids’ journal quite unlike any other, this beautifully illustrated book invites children to record a year of their life by filling in the 365 quirky drawing and writing activities—one for every day of the year. Activities are fun, quick—so no excuse to miss any days!—and imaginatively offbeat, so journalers might be invited to “Draw a scene that happened today, but give the people animal heads” or “Write down every feeling you remember feeling today” or simply just “Sum up today in a single word.”

At the end of the 365 days, children will end up with an amusing, creative, and offbeat record of a year in their life to treasure in years to come.
