Sitting in study hall, yakking on the phone, waiting for dinner... what do you do? Pick up a pencil and start doodling! With this zany journal for daydreamers and doodlers, kids can fritter their hours away--or plant the seeds for a brilliant masterpiece. The oversize spiral-bound notebook opens flat, making it easy to record thoughts, dreams, ideas, and goofy pictures. Every page offers inspiration for a new entry: funny faces, wish lists, where I'd go if I didn't have to be in school, magical power daydreams, pet doodles, daydream gardens, solo tic-tac-toe, and tons more. All readers have to do is start dreaming (and scribbling)! With lots of goofy cartoon-style drawings by Pablo Torrecilla and an emphasis on flower power and peace signs, this wacky journal will appeal to retro hipsters and 21st-century trendsetters alike. Laura Dower, author of many titles in the Powerpuff Girls series as well as the Madison Finn sequence, always keeps her finger on the pulse of what's cool for kids. (Ages 7 to 12) --Emilie Coulter
