Su Chin at ParentReviewers.com gave us a glowing review the other day that made us very proud. What is most important for us is not that parents think the book is cute and that using recycled paper is neat; it is whether the kids find magic in their books and whether we are “Making Reading Fun”.
The concept behind personalized children’s books is not a new one. Kids are just crazy about themselves. They think they are just awesome, which is why a book about someone else (like Cinderella or Jack and Jill) is simply not as interesting as one that is about THEM.
When we go one step further and add illustrations of the child, they are “hooked” and suddenly kids who can’t sit still or think that books aren’t as interesting as TV get excited about the wonderful world of reading.
Most touching to us have been testimonials about children who are just learning to read finding the motivation to learn and to be able to “read it all by myself” because of their importance to the story.
So why choose a Personalized Kids Book? Children can relate more readily to them and that can help you convince your budding reader that there are amazing things to be found in books. Sure it’s bit of a trick, like adding chickpeas to your muffin recipe, but it’s good for them!!!
