Illustoria

If you are the parent of, or shop for, creative, artsy, clever kids, you need this magazine. Lovingly published by McSweeney's, it is the official publication of the International Alliance of Youth Writing Centers. Every page is full to the brim of art, stories, comics, interviews and things to do for youngsters, or the young at heart. Aimed at the 6+ set, themed issues feature stories, interviews with authors and artists, book and music recommendations, and tons of activities - all fully, colorfully, wonderfully illustrated, of course! Published 3x annually, and completely ad-free, this is part of the wave of great indie mags being published these days for kids.
