PRISON 365
Free to explore. No account. No stopwatch.

Welcome to the
Little Joy Club.

Some days call for a grand adventure. Other days, a decent riddle will do. Take a few minutes, solve something small, enjoy a thought, then make somebody else's day a little better.

Play a littleHelp someone inside
01 / WORD PLAY

Untangle the letters.

One simple word with a twist. No one is keeping score.

...
02 / A SMALL RIDDLE

A question worth a grin.

Resist the temptation to ask your phone.

03 / A CURIOUS THOUGHT

A question with no wrong answer.

Something interesting to sit with for a minute.

04 / AN OLD-FASHIONED POSTCARD

Start a friendly letter.

Many people inside appreciate a letter that simply treats them like a person.

Keep messages respectful, follow the recipient's communication rules, and do not include identifying information without permission.

THE BOOK BEHIND THE CLUB

A different page every day.

A cartoon, a little curiosity, a puzzle, perhaps a space to write. Nothing to win. Nothing to prove.

Prison 365 is an illustrated annual with real paper pages and 365 dated entries. The online games are free original extras. See the actual printed-style puzzle from the book.

How to help someone who's inside

Send a genuine letter

Something ordinary and kind can be more welcome than a sermon. Ask about a favourite book, a memory, or a funny thing that happened this week.

Open letter ideas

Help a reading program

Experienced book-to-prison organisations match materials to real reader requests. Find the existing programs and read their submission rules.

Explore book programs

Give a paperback

Search the correctional directory, copy an official physical address and choose a suggested library attention line. Check receiving requirements before buying.

Choose a destination

Share a puzzle

Send a free original puzzle or real sample page in a permitted message or letter. The recipient does not need to own the book to enjoy an idea.

Open a puzzle

Invite your group

A book club, birthday group, workplace or community organisation can use a shareable invitation to organise purchases without pooling money here.

Create a campaign link

Listen first

Ask a prison librarian or a book-program volunteer what readers actually want. An appropriate book matters more than a large shipment.

For partners and libraries

Know someone who could use a laugh?

Try a puzzle, pass a question along, or give a copy of Prison 365. Small pleasures count.
