ABOUT THE BOOK

What is a bilingual personalized book?

A personalized book is a book that is printed for a specific person. It is unique and special! It is you who personalizes the book by:

  • choosing the gender of the child,
  • choosing the main character most closely resembling the child to whom you will give the book,
  • writing the name or nickname of the child, as it will appear on the book cover and in the book,
  • choosing two languages ​​that will appear in the book,
  • writing or designing a personal dedication for the child, which will appear in the form of a letter at the end of the book.

We guarantee that the book will be a unique and a valuable memory of you or the occasion at which you will give the book to the child!
