Children in 2nd - 4th grade, as young as 7-10 years old, may participate. Skills required are the ability to write full sentances and draw pictures on their own.

The group will be provided with blank pages that will comprise the interior of their books, writing prompts, and pencils for sketching their illustrations. A choice of crayons or coloring pencils must be specified by the host. 

Each child will receive one professionally bound, hardcover book featuring the story that they wrote and illustrated. Delivery may be expected within 2-3 weeks of the date of the event, and will be received at an address provided by the child. Additional copies may be requested, if needed.

The time expected ranges 1.5-2 hours. During this time, an author read aloud will take place, and instructions will be provided to complete the writing and illustration of each child's book. Each child will have time to allow the creativity to transfer onto the pages of the books that they write and illustrate, and will be encouraged to complete the Book Craft that day.

A minimum of 20 children must be present to schedule a Book Craft Activity.  There is no maximum number of children, however, additional adult supervisors may be provided by the host to assist if the number of children exceeds 100.
