Oral History Journal
Family stories are worth cherishing, but seldom written down. This beautiful keepsake journal is designed to be filled out by an adult child with a parent or grandparent, recording their unique and meaningful life. Each of 8 chapters delves into a different aspect of the person's life: family history, early years, milestones, daily life, celebrations, personal characteristics, concrete things like recipes, favorite possessions, and thoughts and reflections. Each chapter starts with a memorable quotation, explains the purpose and sets the mood. You'll find prompts with open-ended answers, favorites lists, and blank spaces for special memories and advice. You may want to keep a blank notebook nearby in case a prompt starts a long story or leads to another. Celebrate a loved one's life, recording memories, reminiscing, and learning more about them. Dark gray and accented with watercolor leaves and metallic gold details, an attached elastic band marks your place or keeps it closed. A back pocket can store a few pictures, special letters, or additional stories. Measures 6.25"x 8.25". 144 pgs, hc. ~ Rachel E.
