This group also develops both original and ancillary products in such forms as journals, kits, postcard sets, notecard sets, address books, decks, photo albums, stationery, calendars, and other specialty packages. The Children's group acquires and develops board books, picture books, early readers, young adult chapter books, novelty formats and plush. The Industrial/Product design fellowship provides an opportunity for emerging designers to develop and design innovative packaging and products.
