Activity Books

Contributor post by Will Bryant


Excited to announce my involvement with a rad project for Dave Eggar's non-profit 826 National! I worked with my good friend Nicole Lavelle over at the Portland based Pinball Publishing to help create these pocket-sized activity books. 826 delivered the prompts, I created some drawings, and the Scout Books design team set to work organizing the content into 32 petite pages.

"We hope that these books can serve as tangible evidence of the students’ imaginative journeys through writing and drawing exercises."

This idea is very exciting and it's probably very effective against boredom!

very cool! I was planning on making something like this (although not as amazing as this!) for my kids to do on our 8 hr drive to DC this month
