The Tyumen Parents' Committee is collecting signatures for a letter demanding to withdraw from circulation and ban the sale in Russia of creative notebooks "Destroy me!" Keri Smith, who gained incredible popularity in the world. In their opinion, such "books" can be attributed to literature with suicidal propaganda.
Signatures are being collected in Tyumen under a letter addressed to State Duma deputy Pavel Dorokhin. The issue of the dominance of literature promoting suicidal tendencies on the shelves of bookstores was discussed during a visit to Tyumen by a party deputy to the regional center on March 4th. Then the Tyumen activists showed the guest a notebook "Destroy me!" and offered to look through it.
“It is clear that this notebook should be withdrawn from sale. In no case should the money invested in this business be returned to the customer, because in this case, our children will become consumers of this suicidal dirt, ”explains in the Tyumen Regional Parents' Committee. — The dilemma of money or children must be resolved. We want to solve it for the benefit of our children. To exclude this odious publication from sale ( we are talking about a whole series of books) it was proposed to collect a large number of live parental signatures to send them through the deputy Pavel Dorokhin to law enforcement agencies. If there are a lot of signatures, this will be enough for law enforcement officers to take decisive action.”
Activists developed and distributed a sample living parent signature sheet. They call on the parent community to support the initiative. Signatures are planned to be collected until March 31, 2017.
The initiative was supported by parent committees of several cities across the country.
According to representatives of the parent committee, the mentioned publication, like the entire line of creative notebooks announced by the publishing house - “Antidary”, “Live to the fullest”, “Add me”, “Guerrilla Creativity” - carries ideas of destruction and inclines children to suicidal behavior. The book uses the symbolism of a whale, similar to the symbolism of the "groups of death" in Internet communities.
It is worth noting that the publication "Destroy Merya" is creative notebook, on each page of which there are various tasks, performing which, supposedly, a teenager develops his creativity.
Here are just a few of them: “Stand up here (wipe your feet, jump on top)”, “Smear your coffee on the page”, “Put a sandwich on the page and wipe it off like a napkin”, “Chew this page”; “Eat candy, lick the village with your tongue”; “Unwind the notebook and hit the wall”; “Fill the notebook with compost and watch the result”; “Draw dying birds, mold, horrors, bird feces, vomit and other muck”; “Tie a notebook to a thread and walk around the park dragging it along with you”; "Hide in the neighbor's garden", etc.
Buyers perceive the book in different ways: someone considers it useful and interesting, someone considers it useless and stupid.
Here are some reviews left about this edition on the net:
“I have a 12 year old daughter. Recently, I found her notebook “Destroy me!” destructive creativity. To say that he shocked me with his uselessness and stupidity is an understatement. At first glance, after reading the first pages, nothing special. But it has a lot of different tasks beyond common sense. I, as a mother of a teenager, cannot understand on which page my child will show his creativity and begin to develop his talent. In my understanding, this notebook contributes to the development of stupidity, a careless attitude to objects, books. Develops unsanitary norms of behavior, turning a child, an immature personality into a scumbag. Recently, a boy from their class spat on a chair in the classroom and poured glue, the teacher noticed well and made him wash everything. Probably read such literature and became a creative, creative boy. This notebook is anti creative and anti creativity. I. flipping through the pages, I feel like a half-wit. Is it really in our world, where there are so many opportunities for full development and creativity, you can print such nonsense. It shocked me that so many people like it, even adults. I think for 500 rubles. you can find more interesting things to do than spit, vomit, draw feces, drag around the dirty floor and feel at your best.
“When my daughter first told me about this book, I was shocked. For me, it was wild to imagine tasks from it. Leave a trail of shoes, tear, etc. I was taught to treat books differently. But not everything is as scary as it seemed. If tasks are done creatively, then a good pastime is obtained. I remember my daughter even asked me to take her to school once on a bad road, as she needed to draw some lines in motion.
“The other day I saw what today's teenagers are fond of. “Everyone has it and I need it!!!” my niece said. And well, the money was allocated and the notebook was purchased. And not money, but whole money, I would say. Some good books are cheaper. But this is creativity that each child will show on their own, it's like a questionnaire that you decorate to the best of your abilities and completeness. inner world. In general, you can see the result of psychological stability and perception of the world on this notebook, therefore, it is a useful thing. This notebook simply breaks the stereotypes of our attitude to things, books in particular. There are different tasks in the book: draw, stick stickers, cut, scratch, tear out a sheet, do something with it (for example, make a boat according to the scheme or sell this sheet). On assignments, you can see what the child likes and enjoys the most. And maybe even determine the future profession. This book really encourages creativity. Most importantly, she has an interesting and non-standard format for submitting assignments.”
“I will not list all the many stupid tasks inside this notebook ... Personally, when I was scrolling through this “miracle”, I had a feeling of disgust (and the longer I scroll, the more noticeable). Children and teenagers at all times are greedy for all sorts of "original" little things, and this is not surprising. The abundance of those who sincerely consider tasks from this piece of waste paper to be “creative”, “developing”, etc. is surprising. You read other reviews with five stars - it seems that adequate adults write, but what is written does not fit in the head. No need to consider any inscription that is contrary to common sense, creativity and the development of fantasy. Perhaps it's just stupidity and someone's sick fantasy combined. So put the notebook in the furnace and your mental health!”
Demand creates supply. Many similar publications by different authors appeared on the shelves of bookstores. Teenagers in social networks arrange a kind of competition, showing who fills in these notebooks and how.
It is up to you to purchase a trendy notebook for a child or sign a letter demanding that this kind of literature be withdrawn from sale.

Hi all! Tell me, am I the only one who didn’t know about this notebook, or did this bestseller not reach someone either?
I present to you a super notebook that develops creativity "Wreck this journal", or "Destroy me"!
Do not look at the cover, I have a Russian version of this notebook, created by Keri Smith, she calls to discard any restrictions and solve the situation in her own way.
The book consists of tasks that can be solved in absolutely any order. The main thing is to solve the task and outline it.
Here are some examples of assignments in my book. Tasks in the American and Russian versions are identical.
This task for me personally is one of the most favorite, because you can stamp a lot of things, and I hope it will turn out very beautiful))).
This page is also dedicated to stamps))).
There are so crazy ideas in this notebook, with the help of which at the end, when you completely fill the album, it will actually be "Destroyed".
For example, in a notebook there are tasks such as:
- Climb up and drop the notebook
- Tie a string to the back of the notebook. Spin the notebook, let it hit the walls
- Chew this page
- Sell this page
- Collect dead bugs here
- Smear the page with dirt
- etc.
Here are some examples of how people fill out this notebook around the world.
And here's what happens with the notepad at the end ()
And this is my version of filling this crazy notebook, which captivated me with its tasks.
I changed the cover, or rather sealed it with scrap paper, decorated it a little, although there is no such task in the notebook, but I decided to please my notebook a little.
When you start filling this notebook, you use paints, water, and besides, after taking a shower with this notebook, it begins to swell, so you have to fasten it with an elastic band. I added pendants to the rubber band.
So I completed the first page. It was possible not to fill it out, but I thought that I would try to squeeze everything out of this notebook.
By the way, if you pay attention, at the top of the notebook you can see the bookmarks of the tasks that I want to complete in the near future, and they are not at all in order.
I really like this notebook, you can approach it absolutely in your own way.
For example, I can’t draw, but it doesn’t bother me at all in this notebook, I can draw whatever I want, wherever I want, discarding any stereotypes.
For this notebook, I took out all my supplies of coloring materials. These are my favorite watercolors
also a set of bright colored gel pens,
acrylic paints, mechanical crayons, watercolor pencils, whatever ink pads I have, pretty much anything that produces a vibrant color.
I really liked this notebook, and I fill it with pleasure.
This notebook is very hard to find in regular bookstores, so I specifically ordered it from my local online store. I also get another such notebook from the labyrinth. It's just that at first I ordered in the Labyrinth, and then I could not stand it and ordered in my local one, because I really wanted to feel it in my hands as soon as possible. Also, this notebook is on ozone. Although maybe your bookstores have it too ?!
Increase your creativity, try something new. Poki-poki everyone!)))
