Your whole life you've been taught to avoid making a mess: try to keep everything under control, colour inside the lines, make it perfect, and at all costs, avoid contact with things that stain. Keri Smith's "Mess" asks you to do the opposite of what you have been taught. Think of it as your own personal rumpus room. A place to lest loose, to trash, to spew, to do the things you are not allowed to do in the real world. Smith dares readers to drop some kind of coloured liquid (ink, tea, coffee) onto a page from a good height (at least five feet); draw in the dark (or with eyes closed); creatively misspell words; paint a picture in a water-based medium (pen, marker, watercolour, etc) and leave it out during a rain or snowstorm; and bury this book, then dig it up. Bestselling author Keri Smith is a freelance illustrator by trade, and has illustrated for the "Washington Post", "The New York Times", "Ford Motor Company", "People", "The Body Shop" and "Hallmark". She is the author of "Wreck This Journal", "How to be an Explorer of the World" and "Mess: The Manual of Accidents and Mistakes". She lives in Canada. Sdílet 0

About Restorio.eu

We give things a new story. We sell and buy books, Lego sets, board games and PC games. In the beginning, it was the wish of two enthusiasts to improve the functioning of second-hand bookstores and be beneficial to the world. Today, we create a huge community of conscious people who are looking for a sustainable shopping choice from a financial and environmental perspective. And with them, with you, we write new stories of things that would otherwise remain forgotten. We will send you the money for everything you sell to us immediately. With us, you don't wait for the books to sell. We will do what we say. We believe that even the smallest details are of great importance, so we think through every aspect of our business, from the way we buy books, through packaging materials to communication with each of you. We have designed our Restocks loyalty program of shopping credits to reward you for every support you give.
