My notebooks came damage. The notebooks are bended and ripped. And they're very expensive.

This is the perfect notebook for a kid who is starting to write illustrate or journal! I’m going to go back and buy more as they are helping my 2nd graders so much!!!

For my grandson
As a former teacher I like that this is the same format that the schools use for kids to practice their writing. Place for the picture on top - then write about your picture. Kids should be left to create and use their "best guess" spelling skills. Let him or her read the story to the parents / grandparents - and just enjoy the creativity.

Perfect for school!
I am so glad Staples stocked this item. Our local Staples really pays attention to the school supplies lists in our area. I tried at three or four other stores in our area and in a neighboring town and couldn't find this book anywhere. My son loves it so much I bought a second one for at home use!
