    Absolutely love this book!

    I ordered it for my daughter, and it turned out even more beautiful than I expected. The personalization makes it such a special keepsake, and the quality of the book is amazing. It's something we'll be able to keep and treasure for years to come.

    Such a perfect gift!

This Month's Child FAQs

It's super simple. Just add a child's first name and choose their birth month, then watch them appear as if by magic on the front cover and throughout the story. You can even add their age for an extra-personal touch.

We’ve designed eighteen little characters to choose from, for both boy and girl. Add their gender, select their age range (either 1-3 years or 4-9 years) then choose from a selection of hair and skin tone options.

Make your gift even more special by adding your own personal message to the first page. We'll print up to 400 characters and 10 lines right at the start of the story, for free.
