Children’s Book Review: My Very Own Pirate Tale

September 25, 2013 by Momstart Leave a Comment

Book review “My very own Pirate Tale”

By Lynn:

This is an absolutely AMAZING book! I received one for my youngest daughter and WILL be getting one for my eldest.

So firstly it is a personalized book. You provide the company with some basic information about your child., some optional, but some required, such as their name, which is key in the story. You can give a little dedication too – fantastic for a gift as this is a book they will keep for life!109

There are a few themes you can choose from, some are “My Very Own Name”; “My Very Own Fairy Tale”; “My very Happy Birthday” and the one we reviewed that is up for promotion – “My Very Own Pirate Tale”. You can visit their website at www.iseeme.com to view the whole list of titles.Pirate Placemat (2)

So yes, having a child see their name appear in a book is fantastic, right? But what makes it even more incredible (I feel like one of those infomercials, but wait, there’s more! – but in this case parents will LVOE this) each letter in the child’s name is attached to an animal (For example, J for jellyfish) and they include a cute picture of the animal. Even more cool is that at the end of the book they give the entire alphabet of sea creatures (with the book being pirate themed), some letters had more than one animal, and information about them in a cute little note for children. They also have other products that go along with the books, such as placemats, coloring books and lunchboxes. I asked my 3 year old what she thought of the book and she simply said: “I love it”.

About Lynn:

I met Lynn in MOMS Club and she has two children. One of which is the same age as my daughter and they love to giggle and play together. Lynn Hooper is also a local Mary Kay Consultant while also being a full time mom. “A lot of what the business stands for is true to my heart. Mary Kay Inc. has a foundation that donates funds to help end domestic violence and also funds research into cancers that affect women. Mary Kay also has what’s called "The Golden Rule" which means God (faith) first, family second and business third. A great principal for me and nice to know I am part of a team that believes in this too.”

I See Me: A Custom Book For Every Child

April 22, 2012 by Momstart 15 Comments

Review by Christine:

I See Me.com provides the highest quality, most personalized children’s books available. I See Me! opened for business in May of 2000, after Maia Haag, author and CEO of I See Me! Inc. received a personalized book as a gift for her son but thought that the illustrations could have been much better and the story more customized to the child.

IMG_0029The first book titled My Very Own Name was developed a to provide an educational book that would teach young children how to recognize letters and spell their names.  The I See Me! mission is to increase self esteem in children through personalized books that celebrate the uniqueness of each child. The goal of each book is to show each child how absolutely unique and special he or she is, to teach the child how to spell his or her name, and to build vocabulary skills.

I See Me! books have become popular among celebrities including Courteney Cox, Brooke Shields and Jessica Alba.
The book I selected for my three and a half year-old daughter is My Very Own Fairy Tale. This enchanting storybook is a powerful way to show a child how absolutely unique and special she is. My Very Own Fairy Tale is a hardcover, professionally bound book that transports little girls into a magical garden where flower and berry fairies crown her as their fairy princess.

imageBeautifully illustrated fairies bring letters one by one to spell out the child’s name, while describing character traits that make the recipient alone the perfect princess. I particularly appreciate that most of these traits are related to positive, empowering character traits such as being smart, creative, brave, a good friend and energetic.  This award-winning storybook retails for $32.95 and makes a keepsake for new baby girls through age 12!

As an added touch, this educational book included Avery’s birth date, a printed dedication to the sender, and an illustrated Fairy Patch featuring 62 fairies with interesting facts about their flowers and berries. The book was written by Maia Haag, illustrated by Joyce Patti, and made in the USA.

In addition to My Own Fairy Tale there are numerous other titles; including pirates, birthdays, big sister/brother and religious themes.  There is sure to be a story that will surprise and delight every child.

When My Own Fairy Tale arrived Avery thought it was another normal book after she opened the package.  When I convinced her to open the cover she was SO surprised to see her name on the very first page.  She wanted to stop what she was doing and sit down to read the whole book cover-to-cover.  My Own Fairy Tale was the bedtime book of choice for several days and now has earned it’s own special place in her book collection.

About Christine:
