Imagine starting every day of 2027 with a small piece of the past. Not a long article or a notification, just a single event, a few sentences, and then a blank page for whatever you want to put next to it. An invitation to reflect or to plan your day.
That’s the idea behind the new journals from World History Encyclopedia, the Book of Days 2027 and The Days of 2027. Every day of the year opens with something that happened on that date, followed by lined space that is entirely yours. Same trivia, different designs: one in the style of medieval manuscripts with whimsical animals, and one inspired by Gothic architecture, gargoyles, and monsters. Pick whichever you like more.
Every page has a date, a short account of something that happened on that day in history, and a lined space for your own thoughts.
In the corner of each page, a small marginalia-inspired animal or a gargoyle-inspired monster comments on the event in its own way.
Each month starts with a beautiful and topical illustration. Open it to today’s date, read what happened, and write beneath it, whether that’s a thought, a to-do list, or a diary entry. History becomes a small daily habit.

Ways to Use It
- As a morning ritual. Read the day’s entry with your coffee, then write a line or two beneath it.
- As a reflective journal. Use the event as a prompt: what does it make you think about, or what would you have done?
- In the classroom or library. It’s a ready-made daily warm-up for a history class, a writing prompt for students, or a display page to turn each morning.
- As a gift. For the history lover, the teacher, the librarian, or the friend who always has a fact to share.
Happy reading, and happy writing.
