And that was well before the age of digital books!!</p> <p>I loved covering my books in middle school &amp; highschool. I was always proud of my skills when compared to the lame book sock people! ;) and it was fun to doodle on them! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/school-book-covers#post-2808780 Fri, 09 Mar 2018 14:35:25 +0000 Mamaof2 2808780@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>yep - its digital or the textbooks are shared and stay at school </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/school-book-covers#post-2808702 Fri, 09 Mar 2018 11:20:42 +0000 raspberries 2808702@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Haha, yes, I think it's just that they don't have actual hard copies of books to cover any more - everything is digital. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/school-book-covers#post-2808683 Fri, 09 Mar 2018 10:34:20 +0000 Jennibenni 2808683@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had lots of textbooks that were never covered. A few teachers along the way required it but most didn’t so i can never relate to that item! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/school-book-covers#post-2808680 Fri, 09 Mar 2018 10:31:25 +0000 bhbee 2808680@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I used to love making book covers!! It’ll be so weird if my kids have all digital books. I like reading novels on my kindle but still prefer real paper books for anything instructional where I want to flip back and forth. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/school-book-covers#post-2808666 Fri, 09 Mar 2018 09:53:39 +0000 kiddosc 2808666@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't think kids have as many textbooks as they used to. In our district, kids get ipads with digital books and then there's a classroom set of actual textbooks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/school-book-covers#post-2808663 Fri, 09 Mar 2018 09:48:13 +0000 jennlin821 2808663@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So I keep seeing those "20 things only 90's kids will understand" type BuzzFeed articles, and one thing that keep popping up is "using a paper bag to cover your schoolbooks'</p> <p>So my burning question is....What do kids use to cover their books now?!? </p>
