Bookmaking With Kids

Look at these pads of Post-It notes I found!

I think they’d be fabulous, here and there, in the pages of a hand-
made book. I can see them as recur-
ring elements in a story, contribut-
ing a goofy design twist and serving up bits of dialog.

Watch for future posts in this series to see how these finds were actually used.

NOTE: This post is one in an irregular series about training your eye to see opportunities for bookmaking, opportunities that may be triggered both by “stuff” that catches your eye and by books that kids read. I’ve tagged these posts with the “From Idea to Book” category, and you can get a list of all such posts to date by clicking here.
