In a magical woodland setting filled with charming illustrations of enchanting forest animals, this simple rhyming tale will help your little boy understand just how exciting being a big brother can be. Your son will be the star of the story as big brother bear, who unfolds all the cool things about being an older brother, such as teaching his little brother or sister to swim, building spaceships and making yummy midnight feasts.
Everyone knows how hard it can sometimes be for young children to welcome new siblings to the world, and we created this storybook to specially help them understand the changes that are coming, and to welcome these changes and embrace them positively. Every illustration in this heart-warming personalised big brother book features your little boy’s name for a lovely personal touch that shows just how exciting it is to welcome a new member to the family. You’ll love reading this together.
How to Personalise Your Big Brothers are Great Book

Add a personal message of two lines, up to 40 characters per line, which will appear on the title page. Check your personalisation: accents and other symbols cannot be used unless otherwise stated.
You can also add a special photo of your boy that goes on the back page of the book, using our unique image upload tool to make the book one they can truly cherish.

Beautiful book. Would recommend

The personalization of the child's name did not appear in the storyline. It was only found within the illustrations. The spine of the paperback book was also slightly curved when I removed it from the package. I purchased this book for a relatively cheaper price since I bought it as a holiday gift and used a coupon code so in a sense I got what I paid for.

Thank you for your review.
We are sorry to hear that you are disappointed with the Book received.
With the particular Book ordered the name is featured throughout the illustrations, this adds to the excitement of when the story is read for the Child to have a challenge and find their name hidden within the story. We do have a flip through Book of the complete story however we do take all your comments on board. We are sorry to hear this happened with the spine we can only imagine this happened in transit, if you wish send some images to the email below we could always take a look into this for you.

This book has my grandson’s name on many pages, but his name is not incorporated into the story like I expected it to be. Honestly I am disappointed with this book.

Great Products
I ordered three books (two with plush toys) for my young nieces and nephews back in America. They arrived in a reasonable amount of time given the distance and the pandemic, and the children love them.
