Kidstoria Personalised Children’s Books

| September 16, 2013

The lovely team at Kidstoria contacted me to see if I would like a personalised book for Imogen. It was the first time I had come across the idea of a personalised book for children. I have discovered it is a wonderful way to create a fun learning experience as well as being a precious keepsake.

The personalised book for Imogen where she is the main character of her very own story.

You have the choice of four different story options for your child’s book. These can be previewed on the Kidstoria website so you know exactly what the story entails. Each story is suitable for boys and girls and is customised with your child’s name and face.

Imogen reads ‘Imogen and the Picnic’ for the very first time. At first she is slightly surprised to see herself as a character in the story! It’s not long before she starts talking about Teddy who is sharing the picnic with her and what they are eating together.

Imogen points out small details and talks about the characters in the illustrated pictures.

Daddy reads the story with Imogen as she explains what she is doing in the story with Teddy. This is a fabulous way to encourage the great imaginations of little ones.

As well as books, Kidstoria also create personalised cards for babies and children.

Hodge the Hedgehog

| September 28, 2012

We love the book Hodge the Hedgehog by Amy Sparkes, illustrated by Benji Davies.

I bought this book for my baby a few weeks ago to take on holiday with us and it has been read every day since with much appreciation, from both myself and my baby!

The story is wonderful and the illustrations are gorgeous, it really captures the attention of my 18 month old.

My baby loves naming the animals in the book and grey Mouse in the bubble bath gives her the giggles.

Hodge the Hedgehog is a delightful story with fun and colorful illustrations.
