Are You More Like & What Would It Be Like

This massive collection (1001 Colorful Quandaries) of open-ended questions was designed to encourage youth and adults alike to think beyond daily occurrences and stretch the imagination to the possibilities of life. Examples: Are you more like a microwave or a stove? ...a car or a motorcycle? ...an iPod or an iPad? What would it be like to be a king? ...a school teacher? ...a movie star? ...a migrant worker? These "quandaries" are good for group icebreakers, journal prompts, and topical discussions. 

(What Would It Be Like...? is out of print at the moment - digital version soon!)
