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.
If you require any further assistance please do not hesitate to contact our US customer service team on 347 923 9119 or [email protected]

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.

DONT DO BUILD A BEAR U ONLY THE BOOK!
DONT DO BUILD A BEAR U ONLY THE BOOK!! SCAM
wasted 28 pound on this for my sons birthday very disappointed and angry.
Would not recommend to anyone.
Very arrogant on the phone when calling to ask about the item. And email reply wasn't any better.
Save your money and either build a bear on the website or go elsewhere like etsy or not on the highstreet.
If i could minuses stars I would as even 1 is to much

The book itself is absolutely beautiful…
The book itself is absolutely beautiful and wonderfully illustrated. I couldn’t upload a photo onto the website, it kept sticking, so I ordered the book on a bank holiday Friday evening and it was confirmed at 2000h same night.
I e mailed in the book with a photo attached the following morning Saturday at 0730h and asked if anything could possibly be done to attach it. I received a reply that it was too late, already in production, nothing could be done. In 12hrs ? I was really disappointed - I wish I had contacted CS before placing my original order.
Also I assumed Alice would somehow be woven into the stories as advertised “in the books” other stories but The Ultimate Princess Collection does not offer this. Your child’s name appears on the top of each page but they are actually not IN the stories.
If I ordered again I would be much more aware of what is actually on offer.
In The Book does not mean IN every story, so read carefully before ordering as I’m sad to say I didn’t do.

Thank you for your review.
We are sorry to hear this.
Once a customer has confirmed their order, it is not always possible to add/amend personalisation, as our Production Team are currently working 24 hours a day to keep up with the demand on orders and a photo does have to be uploaded at the time of ordering. With your order, unfortunately your book has already been printed and therefore amendments could not be made, which we do apologise for.
In regards to the Child’s name throughout the book, unfortunately this is not possible with every book that we sell, however we do make it clear within the product information. With the book that you have ordered, we do confirm that your child’s name will appear on the cover and on each page. We do apologise if this information was missed at the time of ordering.
As a gesture, we have applied a 10% discount to your order, which has been refunded to you. We hope will help towards rectify your dissatisfaction.
Please do accept our apologies for the inconvenience caused.
Kind Regards,
The In The Book Team

A great cover and fronts piece.
A great cover and fronts piece.
However, Some of the early pages were unreadable even with glasses and a magnifying glass in use. Some of the pages of the 1960s were unreadable as well, and one was even shown to be torn and disheveled as if lifted from a dustbin.
