From the Author
But journaling requires a journal -- a notebook of some sort. And I couldn't find any that I liked. Either the pages were too narrow and felt cramped, or the thing didn't fit even in my oversized purse. Or the fancy, hardcover binding made it heavy to lug around. Or there weren't enough pages to last more than a few weeks. Or the lines were too dark, or too widely spaced.
Never quite what I wanted.
So I decided to make my own.
I started with dot-grid pages for flexible layouts and for doodling. I scattered some of my favorite math and education quotations through each book. And then I added several of my most flexible geometric coloring pages (loosely based on Islamic tessellation designs).
And I had so much fun I couldn't stop with just one. I hope you enjoy my Dot Grid Notebook with Coloring Pages series!
