Big Book of IFs by Young Writers from 826 Boston, 826DC, and 826NYC
The Big Book of IFs was imagined into being by young writers from across the country as part of a collaboration between 826 National and Paramount Pictures. Inspired by the movie IF, which tells the story of Bea and her magical adventures with imaginary friends, this book brings to life a vibrant catalog of imaginative creations dreamed up by students in 826 writing centers nationwide.
Featuring contributions from students in Boston, Chicago, Detroit/Ann Arbor/Ypsilanti, Los Angeles, Minneapolis/St. Paul, New Orleans, New York City, San Francisco, and Washington, D.C., The Big Book of IFs is a testament to the brilliance of young people’s creativity. Filled with humor, reflection, and boundless imagination, it also invites readers to join the fun by coloring in the IF personas and creating their own imaginary friends in the interactive pages at the back.
This award-winning collection, with a foreword by John Krasinski, celebrates the power of youth writing to inspire, build, and reimagine the world. Perfect for readers of all ages, The Big Book of IFs promises to spark wonder and creativity in everyone who picks it up.
