The Full Mommy

I've reviewed personalized books before, but I am posting another review here because I found one that I think deserves special mention. If you are looking for a personalized book, you will find one that you will love from Custom Made For Kids.

I love books. We have LOTS of them. But there is something special about having one with your child's name in it. At least there is for me, it gets me every time. I have fond memories of reading my own personalized book when I was a child (also of taking my sister's and writing my name over hers back in the day. Oops!)

There are a couple of things that made this personalized book unique. The first was the type of questions you answer when completing your order. Apart from just names and birth dates, this book allows you to enter details like a specific beach or park you frequent, the name of your zoo or a specific team you root for.

When the book arrived I was first very impressed by the beautiful, colorful illustrations, created by an artist who according to the website is an "Urban folk artist inspired by music and all things groovy." This is apparent in the artwork throughout the book.

As I started to read I found that what I really loved even more was the story- The First Adventures of Incredible You.

It begins with: "The day you were born was a dream come true. It began the lifetime adventure of incredible YOU."

You then get to travel through a real day in the life type adventure with friends and family set where you live. By answering a few questions, you can personalize these experiences so that the custom storybook includes the specific people, places and things that are unique to each child and his or her family. The combination of the dreamy artwork and the lovely message of celebrating life as a journey makes this book truly unique.

There are also easy standard options available if you'd like to purchase one for a gift or you have the option of ordering a book gift certificate so that the recipient family may fill in the information themselves.

The quality of this book matches the high quality hardcovers you find in bookstores and would definitely become a family keepsake.
