Journal Sparks

“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
