A method for collecting and organizing information begins with presenting a group of respondents (children or adults) with a series of questions concerning one or more topics or issues. Respondents are also encouraged to express their feelings and opinions concerning any other issue. Respondents anonymously write their responses on a sheet of paper and anonymously deposit the sheet of paper into a box. Respondents may also enter their responses on a computer and anonymously transfer the responses to a database, via an Internet website. All received responses from respondents, whether received via internet or from the physical box, are compiled and stored in a central database. Next, the questions and responses are reviewed, organized and sorted according to categories. The organized responses and questions are used in the writing of a book relating to the topic addressed in the questions and respondent responses.
