Memories Wrapped Up in Books You Love

Wednesday, October 22, 2008 Leave a Comment


My son is 6 years old and is now reading up a storm. It brings back so many memories from my childhood watching him get excited about Sid Hoff's Danny and the Dinosaur. The grin on his face as I told him it was one of MY favorite books as a child, showed me he also enjoys sharing a book and special memories with his Momma.

When I discovered The Kids Book Store, I jumped at the chance to share their save-it-forever books with you guys! Many favorite childhood stories can now be transformed into personalized gifts for your children. Personalization includes a printed dedication, complete with the child’s name, a meaningful blurb and a photo of your choice if desired, right up front, and sometimes on the inner back hardcover.

Available at The Kid Store online at Kids.SharedBook.com. It’s fast – all it takes is a click of the mouse -- and one-of-a-kind – a special, unique gift. It even comes with free shipping. Choose from more than 80 classics, both old and new – from The Wind in the Willows and Alice in Wonderland to Pinkalicious. Accessible by age, title or author. Prices range from $19.95 to $30.00. More books are added all the time so the list of titles keeps growing.

Thanks to The Kids Book Store, one lucky reader will win your own personalized book for the child in your life. All you have to do to enter, is head over to The Kids Book Store website, take a look at the titles, and leave a comment telling me your favorite book should you win. That's it!

  • Brimful Curiosities said:  

    I hate to pick the one you have featured, but honestly my daughter would love to own Pinkalicious, and the customization would be really neat. Wondering why the Kids Book Store lists the age for this book as 5-8 though? I know plenty of 3 and 4 year old who love it!
