To get a sense of the sort of work we do with kids, please peruse the collection of IYWP publications available for free online.

And visit the IYWP Office in 303 Phillips Hall, where we have enough markers, colored pencils, paper, crayons, scissors, clay, chalk, and glitter to entertain a small horde of creative children.
