Comment by Linda Douglas on January 29, 2009 at 12:15am - I've been using books and bookish structures for years now in schools and libraries, exhibiting my books in the display area and teaching children about the joy of books in ways where they feel ownership by assisting them in making the content theirs; where the narrative is image or text or blank for future use. there are very few behavioural problems in these classes. it's a pleasure!

Online blog about making books with children here.
Artist Susan Kapuscinski Gaylord states:
Making books with children is a great way to encourage literacy and creativity and build bridges across the generations. I've seen the positive effects firsthand during my twenty years of making books in schools, libraries, and with my family. My primary goal is always to make it easy and fun.
She has also posted a number of book making tutorials on You Tube.
