About IlluStory Junior
IlluStory Junior allows children to become published authors while encouraging creativity, strengthening literacy and building self-esteem. This kit has already been recognized with 10 educational and consumer awards, including Parents’ Choice, Creative Child Magazine, The National Parenting Center and more, as being a truly unique product that parents can trust to enrich their children’s lives.
This kit allows children to write, illustrate and produce their very own book. When completed, the child mails-in the kit contents in a postage-paid envelope that’s included in the kit, and we print and ship them a professionally printed copy of their book. These kits let children turn their imaginations into reality and parents will treasure the completed book for years to come.
IlluStory Junior Includes:
· One professionally printed and bound, full-color 5.5”x8.5” 14-page paperback book
· Delivery of final book to the customer’s door by mail, for free
· Book pages, cover pages, 10 washable markers, instructions, prepaid envelope and order form for additional copies of your book
· Children design a cover and write “About the Author” feature that can include their picture
· Prepaid envelope to mail-in completed kit contents
My Review:
I opened this up and my six year old daughter has spend most of today working on creating some characters, drawing them and coming up with a sentence or two to go below her illustrations. I think that her drawings are beautiful. She's usually not that interested in drawing things or people, so this has been fun for her and for me to watch and check out her pages when she's finished. The kit came with markers, but we aren't using them. I found some colored pencils with erasers on the back! So if she makes a mistake, she can erase it and start over! I can't wait to read the rest of her short story and to see the book's front and back covers too! You can purchase your own
