It tells the story of the child going to a build a bear store and choosing a bear, stuffing it dressing it etc. All pretty pointless without the bear, so a complete waste of money. I even looked at buying the bear ready made, but the story then doesn't make sense. Not worth the money and an expensive mistake.

More pages could have been added. You guys could have added the actual bear with the book and charged $60 for both book and bear.

It was very cute, and seemed physically well crafted. It was a bit on the expensive side from a pure content perspective, as the book is short even for a child's book. However, it's still worth it for the charm and adorableness it charges forward with, especially when it stars your own furry friend.

My daughter and I love the book

So beautiful and so precious ❤️ a memory to last forever!?
I thought there would be a delay getting my book to Australia due to the pandemic. But there wasn’t! From the moment I purchased my item the process was prompt and seamless

Our grand-daughter was delighted!
Delivered ahead of schedule which was excellent. The book is well produced, colourful and entertaining and our grand-daughter loved seeing her name repeatedly included in the story.

FRAUDULENT!!!
FRAUDULENT!!!! DO NOT ORDER FROM THIS COMPANY. They don’t give you a tracking number. “My orders” and “track your order” pages are always “down”. I paid expedited shipping (10 days), said they “accidentally” shipped ground (15 days), it’s been 2 months and haven’t received it. Don’t believe all the fake positive reviews.

I ordered a special birthday ptesent for my Husband's 50th. I wanted something different for his birthday, and I knew that a newspaper history book of Liverpool FC would be a perfect choice.
I ordered this book on the 5th January, and I received my order within 3 days. I wss really impressed with the service, and the quality of the book i would definitely recommend to family and friends.
