About the rest of the goodies:
In addition to a beautiful hardcover novel, this box is PACKED with supplies to bring out your creative side, inspired by Inkheart, Nightlights, and more! Stay tuned for your first item sneak peeks! Dates below.
Sneak Peek #1: Official "Nightlights" item!
We are absolutely thrilled to announce our first sneak peek! Every box will include a super cool fabric item featuring official artwork from Lorena Alvarez's incredible graphic novel NIGHTLIGHTS! This item is designed to keep your supplies organized while encouraging you to let your creativity run wild!
If you have not read Nightlights, run don't walk to your nearest bookstore or library to find a copy: "Every night, tiny lights appear out of the darkness in Sandy’s bedroom. She catches them and creates wonderful creatures to play with until she falls asleep, and in the morning she brings them back to life in her whimsical drawings. When a mysterious new girl appears at school, Sandy’s drawings are noticed for the first time… but Morfie’s fascination with Sandy’s talent soon turns into something far more sinister."
Sneak Peek #2: Art Supplies!
Every box will also include a high quality arts & crafts item designed by @winkandwonder! We first worked with Joanna of Wink & Wonder for our special edition Bridge Of Souls box earlier this year and we loved the item she created so much (below!) that we had to work with her again ASAP to design an item for all of our subscribers. We know you and your mini bookworms will love this product. We can't wait to see your masterpieces!
