Who likes kids’ books that actually (A) make sense (B) don’t drive you crazy (C) teach your kids something valuable, and (D) give you ALL THE FEELS?
*raises both hands*
We’re huge fans of Put Me In The Story’s personalized books, and we were lucky enough to get to review a softcover copy of one of their latest: Love is all around.
Stick around until the end of this post to get your own FREE e-copy (or order an awesome paper copy).
In the meantime, I’m going to give you five reasons you need a personalized story for the little one in your life …
1. You get to include their photos!
With a couple of clicks, their shining faces are looking out from the pages of a real book. My kids think this is magic, and so do I.
It’s also fun to use a recent photo whenever I make a book, and then I can tell — based on their ages in the photo — when I made it. Ah, memories.
2. Their names are all over it.
Usually, I make separate books for each kid, but I was pleasantly surprised to see that I could put both names in a single field — and it still worked perfectly.
3. It turns it into a game.
Not only are their names IN the story, but they’re also sprinkled through the illustrations — on nametags, signs, etc.
Our daughter can’t recognize many words yet, but she loves that she can point out her name and her brother’s name.
4. There are more details to customize.
I was excited to see that I could add the name of our town in Love is all around — something I hadn’t gotten to do in any of our other Put Me In The Story books.
It was cute to see “The Truro officer who helps change a flat,” and it makes it much more meaningful than just “The police officer …”
5. It will hit you right in the feels.
The part about the sad little boy at school (too sad to play!!!) and the little girl who sits down beside him and makes him feel better? SO FREAKING SWEET.
But my favourite part was when the dad sits down to help his son with homework. This line, in particular, really struck me.
“He’s tired and busy, but that’s love, you know … giving up what you want to help someone else grow.”
Cue the sniffles.
OK, here’s what you’ve bene waiting for.

You’re going to love it. Promise.
