Dani: Exactly as you'd remember from when we were kids and these first came out in scholastic book fairs. Super fun and engaging and you get to think outside the box. It's a great gift for kids or for your artsy friends.

Kelsie: I bought this journal since I have a problem with being a perfectionist. This book basically forces you to be imperfect, dirty, and chaotic. It was a really reasonable price and has a bunch of fun ideas to do. My book is now basically not a book anymore but I had so much fun with each prompt slowly destroying the book.

SheherazahdeSheherazahde: This is more of a fun activity book than a journal. It unleashes creativity by giving you permission to make bad art! What you do isn’t supposed to look good it is supposed to be fun, or scary, or push your boundaries. You are not creating a cherished art object you destroying this book, one page at a time.
I’m 57 and this is my first book of this kind. I love books and it is hard for me (emotionally) to damage a book, so it is a bit exciting for me to be told by the author to destroy this book!
I look forward to seeing how many of the prompts I can do. I wasn’t able to follow the first prompt I opened to (take this book into the shower). But I cut up the back cover, and I made the paper chain! They are fun activities!
I can see how I’m trying to impose order on the chaos this book wants to unleash! But I’m finding a compromise. A way I can follow the instructions but still feel in control, and express my own creativity!

Chloe McGarryChloe McGarry: I ordered the "Wreck This Journal: Now In Colour Edition" in order to be able to give me a creative outlet as I love to draw and create.
Firstly, I find this product to be excellent value for money; at £14.42 it's excellent value for money especially with how many prompts there are throughout the book.
Secondly, I find it suitable for both children and adults alike. And what's better is you can do whatever you like with it and the prompts are there to give you an idea of what you can do. It really gives you full control of how you want to express your creativity whilst giving you a prompt to give you an idea of what to do. This is perfect for when you want to be creative but don't know where to start.
Overall, I am very pleased with my purchase and I will definitely be getting a lot of use out of this book!

Amazon Customer: Bought this as a gift for my daughter. She had so much fun filling all the pages. It kept her busy during the summer months and kept her imagination going when she was "bored". She found it so entertaining. She finished filling it and has asked me to purchase a new one.

MaryMary: Before I say anything, this is NOT for someone who likes to keep books new and clean, because I promise you, you will get messy. My parents didn't quite like the idea of ruining something like a book, but you have to get past the point of trying to keep it neat.
Anyway, this has been so fun to do. I have had to restrain myself from doing all of the pages. Some are definitely gross, like chewing or licking the pages, or others have to do with coloring or painting entire pages. Also, dealing with a lot of anxiety, this has been a really good way to let some feelings out, especially with the pages that involve writing things down about your feelings.
Now, this is only if you need it, but here are all of the prompts. I know it's long, but it just gives you an idea of what you're getting yourself into :)
(add your own page numbers) (crack the spine) (color this page RED on purpose) (pour, spill, drip, spit, fling different colored drinks here) (poke holes in this page using a pencil) (draw lines fat and thin) (this page is for handprints or fingerprints) (color this entire page) (throw something at this page) (press leaves and other found things) (do some rubbings with a...

MissDarby92: If you're 'Arty', 'Thrifty', 'Crafty', 'Creative' however you want to put it, then you NEED this book :)
I am an utter perfectionist when it comes to doing anything, whether it be journalling or even list making. I like everything planned and perfect. I love scrap-booking and writing but i either get bored too quickly or i make a mistake deeming the whole thing rubbish...so i challenged myself.
I bought this.. i LOVE it!!
The book was smaller than i thought it would be, but it's the perfect size to tuck under your arm or in your bag.
Handy when it'll accompany me EVERYWHERE!
The pages are good quality & i know it sounds psycho but they make a nice page turning sound....i know, don't judge.
There are a lot of funny and interesting challenges/tasks that can be done by anyone, at anytime :)
I was nervous about the tearing out tasks, but was super happy when the aligning pages didn't fall out like i expected, the books cover is strong and durable keeping a tight hold on all it's pages :D
At first tearing out a page felt like my soul was being ripped in two, but actually i've discovered imperfections give projects more character &...

Katie: All of my kids (3 girls) have loved these journals. We’ve bought multiple versions and they always enjoy them. The concept is a lot of fun and it allows them to let go of emotional baggage!
