DD (16) when asked about christmas presents said she wants a wrecking journal, apparently there is a book called "Wreck your Journal" or something similar?? - I am a bit clueless where to start to look for the book and/or journal? Any ideas? TIA

Ok, I'm a boring old fuddy duddy, but to buy a book and be instructed to spill food on it is just gross. And weird. And wasteful. I guess that's the whole point, but I was brought up to look after books, so to me it seems just plain WRONG!

They are awesome! My 13 yo neice has one and it's been great fun wrecking it. She does get a little upset when it gets too wrecked though but she has put a lot of thought and care into 'wrecking' hers.

Great to hear TopsyTurvy thankyou, thankyou! I was googling and kept coming up with weird pieces from blogs So I should probably buy the book and then any journal?

No the book is the journal that you wreck. Each page has instructions/suggestions on what to do with it. So no need to buy the book and a seperated journal to wreck. This post has been edited by TopsyTurvy: 10/11/2012, 01:07 PM
