This binding is less prone to rusting and looks WAY better than the stapled version. And the paper feels more solid too. Less likely to dissolve in water.
I’ve totally set this kiddo up to fail / be miserable. And this is my dilemma – encourage a budding author by removing the reality of rejection. Still, the kiddo is young, and we didn’t say the family dog went to a farm upstate when it died. So I guess that balances everything out, right?
