I love this and that you needed this to get rid of your headache. I can get behind the idea of art therapy. Fabulous!
What a creative idea. I think it's great that your son helped make this.
Those books are great!! The teacher in me is proud of his 1:1 correspondence skills 😉
Thanks so much for linking to "20 Below Thursday"! 🙂
What a great idea. I'm sure he loves showing off a book that he made.
Aww! Very cute idea! And I love seeing your little boy doing crafts! People keep asking me what I'm going to do with my son because I'm so into art & crafting, but I don't see why a boy can't be! They can be just as creative and have fun with that stuff too!
Thanks for linking up your great project! I'm also your newest follower!!

Ohhh I love this…adding it to my to do craft list that's for sure!
how fun – I love making books with my girls and they adore having their very own works of art to read over and over again! This was a cute lil number book and what a great keepsake to save and look back on later! 🙂
