I was very excited to receive this book for my little boy. The pictures are very colorful and very well thought out. When you start reading the book its about a stork knowing your baby is coming on their birthday and finding their perfect name. Then the fun begins.
Every page is the stork going to a different part of the world to find a letter in your babies name until the name is done. There are also on the side of each page items to look for in the picture that begin the letter they were trying to find. They do this with the first and last name. Then holy buckets of birdseed! They don’t want to be late for the delivery date. So the stork delivers the letters to you.
When your child is older there is a space for them to sign their names for delivery confirmation. Also a world map showing where the stork went to get the letters. Then the stork flies away saying good bye have fun growing.
This book is definitely a great gift idea for any new baby. The only issue I found while reading it to my son was he was trying to eat the pages and since they were thinner pages he could of easily ripped a page. So maybe a little thicker paper would be better or something a little bit more sturdy for a baby. But, this book is definitely a book to grow with your child. I look forward to reading it to him as he gets older.

This is such a cute idea! I like personalized books. They are meaningful to kids.
I loved reading my kids Yertle the Turtle. I still love reading that book!
I love getting personalized books for my kids. Their names are impossible to find in anything so they get so excited when they seem them in print.
What a cute concept for a first book. It actually helps give your baby his/her name recognition. And once they get older–well do you know any child who does not like personalized books? I sure don’t.
Sounds like a super cute book. There are a few special books I still hold onto now that my kids are older.
Sounds like a really cute book and I would agree it is a book for the kids to grow with. Babies always try to eat the books too. lol Your baby is so cute. Thanks for sharing.
The Night before Christmas mostly. I even recorded it to pass it on someday.
