Hummingbird Journal (Diary, Notebook)

My son hangs around with the kids across the road sometimes. They wanted to get their mum something nice for her birthday as she brings up 5 children on her own. So we started looking and they found this pen a matching notebook and bookmark. They had the parcel delivered to themselves and hid them from their mum. On her birthday they made her breakfast in bed and surprised her with these beautiful presents. She was over the moon with them. The notebook is excellent quality. So the kids were happy and they have a very happy mum with these lovely gifts

Love this journal, perfect for what I was looking for.It is an embossed cover with raised parts to it and looks so elegant. All pages are clear with lines.This is a perfect size, not too big but definitely not too small. The paper is of satisfactory standard although, I did expect a slightly better quality (perhaps slightly thicker pages too).Definitely, recommend as a gift because it is so pretty.Dare I say, slightly overpriced as the quality of paper is average but otherwise as described.

I bought this to begin the process of journaling this year. I have always thought of myself as someone who keeps a journal but never succeeded in doing so. The first thing I needed was a beautiful book that would draw me to it and this ticks that box as it is predominantly purple, my favourite colour. The elastic band is great for holding it together and the page quality is great. I really like the background story about the manufacturers who made it too. The rounded corners are a nice touch. To speed things up I really recommend the matching bookmark too then you can get straight to the page you left off.

I absolutely love these journals. As somebody who has been writing personal journal entries since a young child, I have written through countless notebooks, journals and diaries so I'm regularly in need of replacements in order to keep my hand writing. I first came across these Peter Pauper designs in late July of 2014, when I ordered the Dusky Meadow Journal. This Hummingbird Journal is just as beautiful as the Dusky Meadow one, I really can't credit the artwork enough. The 160 lined pages have a slight yellow tint to them which makes it relaxing for the eye to settle on as you write or read through what you wrote. The purple elastic binder keeps the journal in place and gives that sense of security that it's often felt a journal or diary should have. It's the perfect gift for yourself or another.The "Our Company" statement within the first introductory pages of the journal states that the company continues to honour the founder's legacy and its customer's expectations of beauty, quality and value. I think that it certainly achieves this. Among all other diaries/journals I've ever had, ranging from those old-fashioned "lock and key" ones that you typically receive as a gift as a young girl to the simple Pukka Pads, I have to admit that the Peter Pauper journal diaries are my favourite as the beautiful front covers and mellow pages are just so satisfying to the keen artistic eye.Thanks once again! I'll definitely consider purchasing another design from Peter Pauper Press Inc. in the future for this growing collection. :)

Gorgeous little journal, and I think the quality is excellent. I’m a big fan of the Peter Pauper Press. Cute embossed silver spike details on the hedgehogs’ backs. The book is smaller than A5 (though not as small as A6) so it’s not quite big enough for my regular journaling needs. However, I will use it or perhaps gift it.

Really beautiful notebook, it was a bit larger than I imagined (I would say a5) and I love the cover design with some raised art.The quality feels just as I had hoped, with a good hardback and nice quality pages - acid free it says which means they keep better I think.Nice cardboard pocket at the inside back, good for the odd momento.Really lovely to use for a diary, (plain lined sheets), journal, noveling, lists, ideas etc.....The are matching book marks available to buy.I really like it and it looks expensive and feels a treat.

This is a really pretty A5 writing pad. I am really impressed with the quality for the price I paid. It had very faint line on the pages which is always useful. Delivery was fast I would recommend this product.

I bought this notebook as a gift for my Mum and she loves it. It’s A5 size with sturdy hardback front & back covers and high quality paper inside. The design is as beautiful in real life as in the pictures.
