Editorial Review:
For anyone who's ever wished to, but had trouble starting, keeping, or finishing a journal or sketchbook comes Wreck This Journal, an illustrated book that features a subversive collection of prompts, asking readers to muster up their best mistake- and mess-making abilities to fill the pages of the book (and destroy them). Acclaimed illustrator Keri Smith encourages journalers to engage in "destructive" acts-poking holes through pages, adding photos and defacing them, painting with coffee, and more-in order to experience the true creative process. Readers discover a new way of art and journal making-and new ways to escape the fear of the blank page and fully engage in the creative process.

Rating:  - What a fun book!
This 'journal' is hilarious! Perfect for times when you are feeling down, bored, depressed, or even happy and creative. It doesn't matter, it's perfect for however you are feeling. A wonderful gift book -- I've already bought several for my friends and they absolutely loved it! You will, too -- really!
Rating: - Awesome Fun!
I purchased this book and had my fifth grade students "help" me wreck it at school! They absolutely loved it! They purchased every copy my local Barnes and Nobel had and then some. It was funny to see how enthusiastically they wrecked mine, but had trepidation with their own. It is an entirely different "creative" process than what one would consider "art", yet what fun! I highly recommend this journal for anyone yearning to be outside the box (or in this case, book!).
Rating: - Awesome fun for the whole family
I bought four of these, one for each member of the family, ages 9, 12, and 40somethings. We are having so much fun doing our journals together and comparing notes. My son is the best "wrecker" but my daughter has been very creative with hers as well. They are all turning out different and its so fun to see what each is doing or willing to do.
Rating: - GREAT gift for kids too!!
This book was actually in the juvenile section of my local Barnes and Noble/Borders (I can't remember), and I bought this on a lark for my 9 year old daughter, hoping to get her creative juices flowing and stop her "I hate journaling" whininess (journaling is often a homeschool assignment) in its tracks. This book was AMAZINGLY successful.
Okay, so it's not really about writing (although I think this book would be even better with some interesting writing prompts scattered throughout) ... Read More
Rating: - Loads of fun!
I have had a wonderful time playing with this journal. When my grandson saw it, he thought it was totally awesome, so I bought one for him too. If you want to go wild with your journal, try this one!
