Product Description

Product Description

You collect a lot of memories over a lifetime. Here is the place to keep them.

First there was To Our Children's Children: Preserving Family Histories for Generations to Come. A collection of over one thousand evocative questions, the book offered a very personal, human approach to genealogy, awakening readers to the possibility of creating a family history through the simple act of remembering.

From this book, hundreds of thousands of individuals have learned the value of passing on family treasures made of words. However, readers kept asking Bob Greene and D.G. Fulford for a version of the book with room to record the answers.

The To Our Children's Children Journal is just that: a handy and beautiful journal posing 365 questions (one for each day of the year), with ample space for families to write their own answers. Approachable, enjoyable, and thought-provoking, the Journal is a pleasure to read and to ponder--something that, once completed, will become a lasting part of any family's history, to be put on the bookshelf and treasured for generations to come.

I was pleased after opening my Amazon box~this was exactly what I needed. A Grandparent in the family wanted to know what they could give to us as a "Welcome Baby" gift for our son. I wanted not a 'purchased' gift...but one that would last for generations. I bought this book and mailed it to them asking for their gift of 'time'. It's a very big thing to ask someone to sit down and write out their life story. So I was grateful they were willing, and this book was a perfect tool! I saw the "book" version of this, not the journal, had many great reviews. This journal was all I needed. I didn't want to also ask my family to 'read' the how-to book as well. This book has plenty of thought provoking questions on each page, and plenty of room for the answers. So, it's great, for jumping right in and journaling! Great value too.

This fun little book is a great starting point for making a family history that can be passed on to future generations. The book works by giving the family historian a series of questions that he or she can answer, thus making the basis for the history. Topics covered include such things as family and ancestry, careers, politics, and much more.

I really liked this book; it took me in directions that I never would have thought possible. Overall, though, I would only recommend this book as a starting point. For some reason, religion is covered with only a few questions in this book; while for some families it is much more important that such coverage would show.

That said, though, I do think that this is a very good book. If you want to tailor make a history of your own, then it is a good starting point. But, if you want to record a history merely by answering their questions, then this book will work very well for that, too. I highly recommend this book.

Bought it for friends who became parents at 45 years of age and therefore may quite possibly not be around to share their life memories with their grand children!

A lot of writing involved which filled them with dread as they're both school teachers!! However, for quite a few of the topics a photograph could suffice.

It's from the US so be prepared for Americanisms!!
