    My daughter has ignored her screen in place of this book, the latest craze for an 11 year old girl, challenging social norms, a modern diary

    Used! Worthless!

    I bought the book and it’s came in the mail with writing in it, someone’s had it before and used it already! I’m so upset, I was really looking forward to getting this but now it’ll most likely end up in the bin.

  • Amazing journal

    My daughter and her friends absolutely think this journal is amazing. They are in there early teens and don't get bored of the different activities they have to do. I would highly recommend and a great way to keep them off there tablets and get involved in activities.

  • Daughter loves it!

    Ordered this for my 9 year old and it's the best money I've spent. She's had hours of fun out of it already would definitely recommend this book. It basically gives instructions to make the book look old and tattered.

  • Brilliant gift for child or youthful adult!

    My grandchildren recommended I buy this as a gift for a 10 year old. They have had great fun with theirs. Would also be appropriate as fun gift for an adult

  • Great activities and funny challenges

    It is great for use when you have time on your hands. My 13yr daughter liked it because she could use it during lockdown of COVID-19 to occupy her rather than using a screen, it is unusual and fun and time flies while enjoying the creative challenges and activities.

  • Perfect for my granddaughter

    I have bought this for my 7 year old granddaughter for Christmas but as I haven’t given it to her yet I’m unable to review how she will rate it. In my judgement i feel sure there is enough content in this book to keep her occupied and interested.

  • So glad I bought this.

    Great book that will definitely keep me occupied, help me push some personal boundaries & really express how I'm feeling in certain moments. I'd recommend buying this to be creative in so many different ways!

  • Brilliant

    Absolutely love this journal it's brilliant that you can be as creative and destructive as you like and it helps with thinking outside the box also you realise that your art work doesn't have to be perfect and there is plenty to do

  • Lots to do!

    The book contains a nice variety of activities and so would be able to be used at any time (which I was unsure about) Some of the activities are drawing,some writing some rubbing - the book leaves it up to the person to go as wild as they like and really encourages imagination! Would recommend for all ages !
