Great Fun and an Incentive to Write
|
I have used this book in my writing workshops, and the parents quickly became involved right along with their children.
The book models range from extremely simple to complex. We often began with the Traveling Museum because this book requires only a single sheet of paper and scissors. The children enjoyed folding and unfolding it and trying to figure out where to begin their writing. The Exquisite Corpse model is more complicated, more fun, and even more appealing to the children's imaginations.
One aspect I really appreciate is the examples of books children had made. The books look as if they have been made by children and not a stylist. Perfect examples would have discouraged some of my younger students when their own books did not turn out exactly the way they expected.
The pages of Making Books also contains interesting examples and historical information about books and bookmaking. The hardcover book itself is bound with a transparent spine.
If you have childre who do not enjoy writing, try making books with them. The blank pages may inspire them to put words on paper, and you will enjoy the process of bookmaking as much as they will. Great project for a snowy or rainy day. |
