Everything You Need to Know About June 2021's 'Wondrous Worlds' Theme

By: Sally White

Here is what you can expect to find inside the June 2021 box...

Pack your bags, we're going on a journey—from the comfort of our own reading nooks, of course! Next month's box is a celebration of wondrous worlds and literary locales from just a few of our favourite middle grade classics.

About the book:

June's book is the first in a scintillating new series, perfect for fans of The Train To Impossible Places, Nevermoor, and A Wrinkle In Time! It is a portal fantasy adventure, with incredible storytelling and nail-biting excitement.

Our OwlCrate Jr signed first edition of this book includes a beautiful exclusive cover design, plus a letter from the author bound into the book!

About the rest of the goodies:

This box will be packed with fun and useful items inspired by some of our favorite destinations from classic and contemporary middle grade!

Sneak Peek #1:

Every June box will include an incredible exclusive item designed just for OwlCrate Jr subscribers by @annelambelet! If you enjoyed the book tin Anne designed for our July 2020 “Lost In A Book” theme, we think you'll adore this item (although it is something completely different!). It is the BIGGEST object we have ever made and we cannot wait to show it off.

If you aren’t yet familiar with author and illustrator Anne Lambelet, make sure to take a gander at her account! We are obsessed with her fantastically intricate designs and are so thrilled to collaborate with her again.

Sneak Peek #2:

Every June box will also include exclusive stationary from Boygirlparty!
Susie Ghahremani an illustrator, author and designer whose work you’ve probably seen, either in our past boxes or in your favorite bookshop. From adorable enamal pins to her newest publication Growth: A Journal to Welcome Change Susie is always creating beautiful vibrant art with lush themes of nature. You can follow @boygirlparty to see more of Susie’s beautiful work.

This isn’t the first time we’ve worked with Susie! The fold-and-mail stationary featured in this photo is from our October 2018 MAIL CALL theme. We absolutely love writing and receiving letters, so we may need to have a little letter writing contest this summer...

Sticker Artist Sneak Peek:

Our June sticker artist is @amysmarshjohnson! Amy is a wonderful illustrator, designer, and a professional "maker of happy". In addition to her own work, she is also a designer for Hallmark Cards!

We absolutely love Amy's bright, fun and funny creations and we know you'll love her sticker design this month. It will be prominently displayed on the laptops of a few of our team members here at OwlCrate HQ!
