What was a potential disaster turned into a magical night of storytelling and endless laughs.....and that night, the Box of Questions was born.

With just an idea, the company was started in the summer of 1997. The founder was on vacation on the west coast of Michigan when she walked into a Barnes & Noble book store. She wanted to pick up a vacation journal and envisioned finding a series of journals with the prompts such as Journals Unlimited now offers (Where she traveled, Where she stayed, People she met, etc.). There was nothing even close, only a wide variety of blank journals. Almost immediately the idea was born! By the end of the day, She had developed several titles as well as the craft color and cover design.
