Big Book of Ifs
$ 18.00
With Paramount Pictures’ latest film, IF, as inspiration, 826 students are putting put pens to paper to bring their imaginary friends to life through writing. Together, 826 and Paramount Pictures are publishing three books of youth writing inspired by the upcoming film, starring John Krasinski, Ryan Reynolds, Cailey Fleming, Louis Gossett Jr., Jon Stewart, Awkwafina, Maya Rudolph and Steve Carell.
Youth writers across the 826 Network—826 Boston, 826CHI, 826DC, 826LA, 826 MSP, 826michigan, 826NYC, 826 New Orleans, and 826 Valencia—took up the pen and flexed their own creative power to create and share their own imaginary friends on paper. From a pocket-sized creature who turns into a rainbow whenever their human is nervous, to a pigeon whose favorite activity is to nap with their human, young writers shared what makes their imaginary friends so special and illuminate what is most important in a friend.
With a foreword by writer and director John Krasinski, the Big Book of IFs is a profound exploration into childhood imagination and creativity and is an invitation to discover a world that only young people can see.
