Lovely looking book but expensive for what it is and fell apart within 1 day. Bought for my 2 year old sons birthday but on first read by adult with him, 4 pages came loose!

Ordered a black leather bound book of Formula One racing. A fabulous gift which looked very classy in its own beautiful box. So impressed, I have just ordered a football book of newspaper cuttings and debating which of the history books to order.
Good value for money and a gift to treasure.

Thank you for your review.
We are sorry you feel this way.
On the product page for the item you have ordered, we do offer a flip through of the book so you are able to read the whole book from front to back. This confirms that the child’s name is on every page of the book, along with their name showing within the illustrations. This also confirms where the photo of the child will appear, along with example photos that we provide. We do apologise if this information was missed at the time of placing your order.
As a gesture, we have applied a 10% discount to your order which will be refunded back onto your original payment method. We hope this will help towards rectify your dissatisfaction.
Please do accept our apologies for the inconvenience caused.
