About Zdiba
Who makes the Family Legacy Journal, and how to reach us.
Zdiba is a small independent publisher with one book. The Family Legacy Journal is a guided memory book for parents and grandparents: 58 questions in 8 chapters, asked in an order that makes them easy to answer, with room to write every answer by hand. It is written by M. Zdiba, who signs the note on the home page about why it exists.
