Reviews

So practical and handy, encourages daily journaling

"Perfect size and writing space to capture the key moments of the day. Nice weight of paper and lovely ribbon bookmark."

An End of the Day Journal

"Being a 5 Year journal, it's virtually perpetual. It's a simple five line daily entry. However, it's sometimes challenging to summarize a whole day's activities in less than a paragraph. But overall, over time your will enjoy comparing your days from year to year as the individual days are all on the same page so you start at the beginning of the book each year."

Fred D. (5/5)

I have used these journals

"I have used these journals for nearly 10 years and bought two more to carry me through the next decade."

Not a Fan

"I had great expectations for this journal. However, I am extremely disappointed. I have never been disappointed with any Levenger purchase. It is my go to place for all my business, writing, and book products. perhaps I didn't understand what I ordered, but it is too small for me. It is good quality but I can't use it for the purpose that I had in mind."

Michala (5/5)

Baby book in mother's loving hands

"My daughter-in-law loves it! She's using it to record what her one-year old is up to every day. Although it's called a 5-Year Journal, it could as well be called a 5-Minute Journal, as that's about all it takes to make a daily entry."

I see in a question from March 2023 that only the Natural and Berry colors were available. Today (March 2024) looks like no Berry, but Navy and Green are available. Are plans to bring back Berry? I'm hoping to re-order the Berry so that my journals can continue to match.
Sorry, berry is discontinued and we have no plans on bringing it back at this time.
Is it possible to get a five year journal in a larger size notebook?
Sorry we do not make the 5-year journal in a larger size.
