The cover of this beautiful 4" x 6" 50-page notebook features a lovely colorful 1772 map of the kingdoms of Spain and Portugal originally published by Robert Sayer. Here is some of the theory behind the beauty and potential of a blank page: "A person can get lost trying to find a home in herself––but then you simply begin to go on as one must go on, and maybe you say a little something to yourself every once in a while just to practice being with words, meeting silence, meeting yourself again, and maybe you frequent empty rooms to familiarize yourself with the meaning of space as in a blank page, and yourself in it, and maybe you scribble like this will help you come home to yourself, but eventually you fit things together, and what made no sense finds its way into something plausible by virtue of its sheer existence."

'Jimmy-Why No?l Polchies: Their Adventures in the Great Woods', is a one-volume compilation of George Frederick Clarke’s Jimmy-Why stories for children. Originally published in two volumes as 'The Adventures of Jimmy-Why' and 'No?l and Jimmy-Why', these books recount the experience of a young boy as he learns the ways of the great woods and woodland living in New Brunswick, Canada. While written as fiction, we know that one of the main characters, No?l Polchies, was a real First Nation person who appears in the stories in his own name. We also know that in real life No?l was a mentor to a young Fred Clarke. This is, perhaps, why the stories ring so true.

"I Wasn't There" is a selection of poems touching on death, teenage crushes, fairy stories, family, and love. Written with love for you to read with love! "I don't know why but I run outside and stand in the garden, shivering, my face turned to the milky sky, arms clenched rigidly around my body, for the air is freezing now and the snow falling thicker and faster and I worry that Becky is cold ... she won't be cold will she? Mum will keep her warm ... and Dad, and Dave, and Lily my mother-in-law. She should have a scarf, a warm coat, gloves, a hat ... I didn't think of that at the time. I wish that she was at home, cosy, sitting on the fluffy orange rug in front of the fire, and not in a box with a nailed lid, that lies down a deep dark hole in the earth. My heart pounds with terror." (Extract from "You to Me Are Everything" - a novel by Debbie Chase)
