Give a book you cannot find anywhere else

A personalised children's book with their name in it makes the child the hero of their own story. It suits a birthday, Christmas, a christening or a perfectly ordinary evening, and it is read again and again because the child recognises themselves on every page.

Why a personalised book makes a good gift

  • A story made to order: the child's name, interests and friends become part of the plot, and the pictures are drawn from your photos.
  • A gift that always fits: from a book for starting school to a message from the grandparents.
  • From eBook to hardback book: read the eBook straight away, then order a 26-page A4 hardback book, printed and sent to your door.

Order your personalised book

The eBook costs £6.99 and the hardback book £26.99 plus £4.95 delivery, free from two books. See every extra on the Prices page.
