If you are a regular reader, you’ll know the one type of review my son loves to help me with is books! He can’t get enough of books. Sure, he is way too young to read, or ever really understand the stories, but he loves turning the pages to look at vibrant illustrations. Whenever he sees a book, he knows exactly what it is, and what he’ll get to do. When I pulled out books from MyMimiSays, his little face lit up with joy in anticipation of “reading” the books together.
At MyMimiSays, we believe in the transformative power of a well-told story. And we remember fondly the personalized stories our Mimis and Nanas told—always with our names at the center, always with us emerging as heroes. Our custom books put the special child in your life at the center. They make wonderful gifts for any occasion—birthdays, graduations, holidays and any special moment in between.
MyMimiSays generously sent me copies of their two books If You Take An Animal Home and The Very Sleepy Firefly. Both stories are written by Donna Hermans, and feature art by Sam Ricks. MyMimiSays can customize these stories to feature your child as the star! Imagine the excitement on your little ones face when they open these books to see their name in big bold letters!
If You Take An Animal Home is a lighthearted tale that teaches kids about the habits of wild animals, like giraffes, monkeys, zebras, and elephants! Children will learn that these animals are not like cats and dogs. These are animals that belong in the wild. The story helps them understand why those animals don’t exactly make great pets!
The Very Sleepy Firefly is the sweet story of a firefly that saves the day with a very bright light! MyMimiSays will name the firefly after your child so that your little one is the at the center of this tale.
Both stories are fun reads and the illustrations are colorful! I absolutely love personalized books. I’ve always felt that the personalization not only serves as a special keepsake, but imagine how special your little one feels when they see their name. Definitely a boost in their confidence!

I love personalized books for kids.
Awe how Sweet! I want a personalize book for my little princess!
I've never seen personalized books before and I'd love to have one for my baby when he gets big enough to appreciate it! :)
The best way to foster a love for books is by starting early. Sounds like you guys are well on the way.
oh i love how adorable of a gift this would be! Thanks for letting me know about them! ^_^
Your son is a cutie, and I'm glad he already loves "reading" :)
I remember as a kid having a book that had my name in it and it was truly one of my favorite books ever. This would be such a great gift.
