Johnny Bunko: 21C College Counselor?

Now I know why Dan Pink headed off to Japan last spring at this time.

While I had the pleasure of working with him as one of my guest jury members in the 2007 DesignShare Awards program (article just released in Edutopia magazine) while he was overseas, I sensed that the bigger project he was working on -- with a manga spin -- was going to be something worth pushing A Whole New Mind a few inches to the left on the book shelf for.

From the following trailer you might see why I also think The Adventures of Johnny Bunko might even make a compelling college counselor on some level.

A sneak peek at the book claiming to be the "Best Graduation Gift of 2008!"

Hey Christian -- I loved Johnny Bunko. It took me 45 minutes to read and really sent the message home. Go Dan for putting his writing where his message was in his last book!
