My brother and his wife were absolutely delighted with this present. I bought it as a 1st birthday present for my niece. They won't give it to her until she's a bit older. They asked where I got the book from and loved the fact that her name is written throughout the book and on the front cover. The personalized message on the inside was an added bonus.

We had this book made for our grandsons christening. Unique and beautifully made. Would highly recommend it.

The book itself is lovely just so so thin and not much in it! Not worth the money.
JackieJ29 Aug 2018
I have absolutely nothing negative to say regarding this purchase. Both kids (to my knowledge) loved their gifts and it is the sort of thing that will be treasured and last a long time. So do not hesitate and go for it!!

Good quality, excellent service, will definitely buy another one for my grandson, perfect keepsake present
Fibee29 Aug 2018
Lovely book again I chose the hardback book .... children will love this book their name on the front cover so personal and inviting, again inside on the inner page you can put your personal message which lasts a lifetime. My granddaughter will have many years use out of this book with great pictures of each word to make it more understandable and again your child will have fun picking out their name throughout the book. A very interesting added extra at the back of the book, it has a word search of all the 91 entries in the book and your child's name also!

My grand-daughter aged 6 loves finding her name on every page and reading the text. The art work is good and the illustrations amusing. Plus she will learn as well as enjoy. Equally good for boys and girls.There are not many pages overall so it's not a serious encyclopedia in the accepted sense, just a fun read. Very good for the price and delivery was quick.
Very pretty box and a delightful book for granddaughter

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.
