This is a fun journal that everyone gets to make up their own fables. Did the Princess really sleep on a pea? Perhaps the Brother’s Grimm got their facts mixed up? Did the tortoise REALLY go slower than the hare? This is your time to shine, and make up your own twisted fable. When this journal is full, please send it back to Debbie Hoggan Bookmooch ID: hogganclan.

Fairy tales are universal. Everyone has a favorite fable or story from childhood that they love to re-tell. Here’s your chance to share your favorites!
Take a fairy tale and put the text of it into the book. Then, take a few pages to respond to it. Talk about why it’s your favorite story, spin a “modern” version, draw all your favorite characters…it’s your romance, so react in any way you please!

And, Do you know it All we ask is to not change anyone’s work, or write over it, or cover it up. Keep within the two week time limit, and then post it to have some one else mooch it.

Here’s something a little different. Whenever or wherever this journal travels, it travels with a gift for the next recipient. Doesn’t matter what the gift is or how big it is- it’s the idea that counts. It can be jewellery, a hand made bookmark or some bookbeads, a book from the next moocher’s wishlist, or anything else you can come up with. Your entry in the journal is essentially an open letter to the next recipient saying hi and ‘introducing’ your gift (once again, feel free to get as multi-media as you’d like), a thank you to the person who sent *you* the journal for their gift to you, or you could even just give an account of some other random act of kindness bestowed upon you.
Please remember to keep this moving and to relist here once you’re done with it.

Have you ever seen a ghost? Did you happen to get a photo of it? Would you tell us the story? Or is there a fictional ghost story you’d like to recommend? I’ve never seen a ghost myself, but I love the stories and also I’m fascinated by photographs of ghosts. I’ve started this journal with a copy of a famous ghost photo taken in England in 1995.

This is an altered address book that is scattered with people I have lost touch with. January 10th, 2008 my partner of 7 years told me she wanted a separation. I think that even living together we lost touch. Now we need to figure out if we can ever find each other and ourselves…
This journal means a lot to me so please try to keep it moving. If you find you are no longer participating on bookmooch still drop me an email and I will figure out a way to get it back.

Everybody’s afraid of something. There’s arachnophobia – afraid of spiders. There’s fear of enclosed spaces – claustrophobia. These are fairly common fears, that many people share.
Now, this journal requires a little research. You are going to find a more unusual fear, and you will tell us about it. Perhaps it is a fear you suffer yourself; perhaps it’s something you’ve only heard about. A fear of cooking? Mageirocophobia. Terror of Epistaxiophobia? That’s nosebleeds. Give us the name of the phobia you’ve found to share, a description, and then have fun with it! Write a story about it. Or a poem dedicated to it. Illustrate it. Love it. Make it beautiful – make it horrible. Take a bizarre phobia and make it your own.
Disclaimer: If you fear you suffer phobophobia, the fear of phobia, please consider refraining from this journal. 😉

Being a Disney fan I thought it would be fun to start a journal all about Hidden Mickeys. If you don’t know what that is check out this site for an explanation. This journal is an altered children’s book and what I would like everybody to do is to add your own art and include a hidden Mickey(s) in your art work. You may use cover the pages in the book completely or work around the pictures and words, anything goes. The only thing I do ask is no mature content be added to this journal as I would like to share it with my whole family. Have fun!

This Bookmooch journal is a humorous look at the similarities between the lives of mothers and monks. Consider topics such as celibacy, poverty, service to a deity, isolation and sleep deprivation.
Feel free to include passages on your thoughts on this topic, anecdotes and stories, cartoons, poems, pictures, quotes or whatever comes to mind that will fit inside its pages.
Parents, have a laugh!
