Publish your own book with the Illustory Make Your Own Book Kit! This award-winning activity kit allows future authors to write and illustrate their very own story on special book pages provided. Once the story is complete, it is sent to be published, and in a few short weeks the budding writer receives a color-copied, professionally type set hardbound book. Ideal for ages five and up, this innovative kit nurtures enthusiasm for reading, writing, and illustrating.

Let the Fun Begin
Illustory Make Your Own Book Kit is not only fun, it also helps your child build self-esteem. You'll never forget the look in your budding writer's eyes as you proudly display his or her first book on your coffee table or bookshelf. This kit even includes an "About the Author" biography page, title, and dedication, just like a real published book. Your child will also enjoy creating the cover and will be able to select from seven cover colors. Families can have fun too as they create their own story together. Extra books with alternate dedication pages can be ordered to make the child's story a gift or keepsake for family, friends, or teachers.

Once your child is finished with the writing, sending the manuscript to publishing is easy, with the included paid postage envelope. Production time is about three to four weeks, plus delivery time. The finished hardcover book measures 7 by 9 inches with 12 pages, and features a permanent hardback binding, a laminated cover drawing, and book title. For techno-savy young authors, the book can be created entirely online by using the Creations By You bookmaking Web site. The entire Illustory kit includes 18 special book pages, 2 cover pages, 10 washable markers, story web planner, instructions, order form, and a prepaid envelope. The correct spelling option allows a choice between leaving spelling errors in or having the words printed correctly.

Award-Winning Features
This kit was a winner of the Oppenheim Toy Portfolio Gold Seal Award, as well as multiple awards from other organizations. It helps builds self-esteem and sparks an interest in reading and writing. Youngsters learn to see a project through to completion, and their final printed story rewards their effort. There are many optional upgrades available (for a charge) to enhance the book. Extra books can be printed and separately dedicated as gifts for family and friends. In addition, the author's photo can appear on the bio page, and rush delivery is also available. The Make Your Own Book kit beautifully captures a child's creativity and turns it into a keepsake that will be treasured for years to come.

Create Working Electronic Circuits
Snap Circuits comes with over 60 pieces to create 305 different electronic projects. The pieces, which include snap wires, a slide switch, a resistor, a microphone, and capacitors, snap together easily onto the included plastic grid--no soldering required. Each piece is numbered and color-coded to make identifying them easy. These components combine to create working circuit boards just like the ones found inside televisions, radios, and other electronic devices.

Simple, Fun Projects Let Kids Learn While They Play
With its easy-to-follow instructions, Snap Circuits gives your child a hands-on education in how electrical circuits run the everyday devices that they're familiar with. They'll also gain valuable lessons in building and in following instructions. The project manuals include large color illustrations and simple directions for each project.

The project list includes all of the projects included in the SC-100 set and 204 additional projects, including a photosensitive electronic organ, a lie detector, an AM radio, and a two-finger touch lamp. With these projects, children will experiment with electric switches, integrated circuits, digital circuits, fuses, and the transformation of circuit sounds into other sounds.

Grow as You Go
Because the projects are arranged in order of complexity, kids can build on their skills as they progress through the manual. The lessons start out with a simple electric light and switch project that demonstrates how electricity is turned on and off with a switch. Further along, kids can put together a fire fan symphony, a water-detection alarm, a delayed-action fan, and more.

Design Your Own Circuits and Upgrade Your Kit
Once children have mastered several of the techniques introduced in this kit, they can use the components to experiment and create their own customized circuits and electronic devices. The Snap Circuits SC-300 can also be upgraded to the Snap Circuits Pro, Snap Circuits Extreme, or SCM-400 with the purchase of a UC-50, UC-70, or UC-100 upgrade kit, respectively. Kids will enjoy additional parts, manuals, and projects that'll take their kit--and their fun--to the next level.

Snap Circuits SC-300 requires four AA batteries, which are not included.

What's in the Box
Plastic snap-grid, 32 electrical components, and 2 project manuals.

This is a kit to give your child (Kindergarten to High School) an opportunity to author their very own book. They write and illustrate the book on the pages supplied with no limit on words. If you want more text, you just need to shrink the font size. You can then drop off the pages (if in Madison, WI area) or mail them in the provided envelope. In about 2 weeks, you'll receive a fully bound hard cover book back (a certificate for one free hardcover binding is included in the kit). Grimm Book Bindery, Inc. has been hardcover binding since 1854!! Yes, that's not a typo - 1854 - over 150 years of binding experience. We've had these kits available for years at our shop in Madison, WI but in the past few years have added them to Amazon to offer to a wider audience. If desired, when sending in your child's manuscript, you can request additional copies be made for Grandparents or friends. This product is not only fun for your kids, but educational too! Children are thrilled when they see their own story transformed into a REAL BOOK! Being an author stimulates imagination and creates a great sense of accomplishment with increased self esteem. You'll treasure their book for years to come and THEY can one day read it to their own children. Note from Bindery Manager: The stories that your children create are AWESOME! I love looking over each one that comes in & when time permits (which is about 99% of the time) I personally write a quick & encouraging note to the child complimenting them on their work. I feel that each is a work of art & kids just don't get enough positive reinforcement. I STILL recall an English teacher that encouraged me when I was younger, so at Grimm Bindery, we want to plant that same seed in the Young Authors that send in their work for binding.

Cost of kit INCLUDES prepaid coupon for a full hardcover binding by our binding staff. Once your child has written their story, you just send it in and get a REAL BOOK back bound in a hardcover with book cloth and beautiful gold printing on the spine and front! When possible (about 99% of the time) we also include an encouraging hand written letter to the child complimenting their efforts to help to build their self esteem.
Great for younger children up to teenagers! Can be used for High School writing projects to get that A+.
Binding service included in price can be a hardcover cloth binding with the title printed in gold, black or white. Or an option can be added where we will use your child's illustrated title page to create a full color printed cover of THIER exact artwork (not a stock cover, but what they have designed). See samples views to get an idea of the possibilities!
Make your child the youngest author on the block! Call or email Grimm Book Bindery, Inc. 608-221-4443 or info@grimmbindery.com with questions.
Kit includes 25 preprinted pages, 20 with illustration frame for child's drawing and room below for story to be written, 2 title pages & 2 about the author pages (an extra in case of error), 2 blank pages and one "the end" page. There is no limit on words or text as we will bind what is written on the page. (The ACTUAL pages that you send in are bound into the book). Child can hand print story directly onto page or type in word processor and then feed through your home computer for printing. No special program is needed!
