Jeff Kinney’s Diary of a Wimpy Kid series has become tremendously popular as a way to inspire reluctant readers. The success of Kinney’s books has led to several unique spin-off products, including a stationery line from Mudpuppy and Amulet Books.
My favorite item in the new Wimpy Kid stationery collection is the three notebook drawing/writing set. This is an excellent way to encourage kids to be creative. One notebook has blank paper for drawing. One has lined paper for writing short stories. One has panels for creating a customized comic book. Each cover is a different color to make them easy to tell apart.
My son really liked the idea of the comic book style pages. However, he said he wished the notebooks were a bit bigger. They’re about the size of a DVD case. Making the notebooks the size of a composition book would have made them more appealing to little artists and writers.
You can purchase the three notebook set on Amazon for $10.40. Unfortunately, you can’t buy the notebooks separately at this time. I’m hoping they’ll decide to split the notebooks into individual purchases at a later date, because I think my son will run out of paper in the comic book notebook long before the other two books in the set are full.
Other Wimpy Kid stationary items from Mudpuppy and Amulet Books include magnetic list pads, mini notebooks, and a hardcover journal for writing down all your secrets.
Does your child enjoy The Diary of a Wimpy Kid series? If so, do you think he or she would enjoy this Wimpy Kid themed stationary?
