There are 7 personalisations that need to be filled in for “The Birthday BOO!”
GENDER – Select Girl or Boy.
FIRST NAME – The child’s first name that the book is for. This name appears on the cover, spine and throughout the story. You have a maximum of 12 characters for this. (If you have a name longer than 12 characters, contact us as we may be able to customise the book for you).
LAST NAME – The child’s surname that the book is for. This name only appears on one page. You have a maximum of 20 characters for this. (If you have a name longer than 20 characters, contact us as we may be able to customise the book for you).
BIRTHDAY – Click on the Birthday field and a pop up calendar will appear. Select the child’s Date of Birth from the calendar.
AGE – This will be automatically filled in for you from your DOB calendar selection. (The year of birth is not used in the book but only to calculate the child’s age. If the child’s birthday has already passed just adjust the year of birth to calculate the age correctly).
FAVOURITE GIFT – A chance to personalise the story with a gift the child really wants! If you’re not sure, we have provided some popular suggestions in the drop-down menu. To write your own select ‘Custom Gift’ from the drop down menu and fill in the ‘Custom Gift’ field which will then appear below (maximum 30 characters).
Please note – When adding a Custom Gift, you are completing the sentence “They want…”. So for best results you may need to add an ‘a’, ‘an’ or ‘the’ in front of your chosen gift. Please check that autocorrect doesn’t unnecessarily capitalise the ‘a’ or gift (unless it is a brand name e.g. Lego).
FAVOURITE FOOD – A chance to personalise the story with the child’s favourite food! If you’re not sure, we have provided some popular suggestions in the drop-down menu. To write your own select ‘Custom Food’ from the drop down menu and fill in the ‘Custom Food’ field which will then appear below (maximum 30 characters).
Please note – When adding a Custom Food, you are completing the sentence “They ate…” so it works well to add one long Custom Food dish (e.g. Grandma’s shepherd’s pie) or 2 Custom Foods (e.g. strawberries and cream’). Please check that autocorrect doesn’t unnecessarily capitalise your Custom Food (unless it is a brand name e.g. Haribos).
DEDICATION – (optional) We provide a personalised, poetic dedication for your book, but you may like to add to this with your own special words. (You can then add up to 148 characters, over 7 lines).
PREVIEW MY BOOK – When you click on this button, a preview of your whole book, complete with your personalisations and dedication (if written), will pop up. (All starred* personalisation fields must be completed before you can view your preview).
PLEASE CHECK IT CAREFULLY and if you spot any mistakes, close the preview box to amend your personalisations.
COVER CHOICE – Select whether you want SOFTCOVER or HARDCOVER.
GIFTWRAP – Select whether you want to add GIFTWRAP or NO GIFTWRAP.
ADD TO CART button. If you have omitted any of the required fields a pop up box will let you know what you have missed out. Otherwise you will be taken through the CART and CHECKOUT process. There you will see all your personalisations and dedication listed so you’ll be able to check them thoroughly again. If you have to make any amendments, then click on 'Edit options' next to the product image to go back to the personalisation page.

I bought this book for my granddaughter’s 1st birthday. The first book arrived with a printing issue. Alison sent me an email alerting me of the printing error. I check the book and found the error also before I read her email. Our channels got crossed but we worked it out. Alison assured me that I would have the Birthday Boo Book by the time I needed it, which was for my granddaughter’s birthday. And it came so quickly and the book was just perfect. I was so thankful to have dealt with such a nice person as Alison and I would do it again in the future.

My 3 year old daughter loves this book and so I! Perfect present for her birthday. It’s funny, beautiful and she loves that it’s personalised with her name and favourite things! Her expression when we read out her name and ‘Minnie mouse toys’ (her fav) was priceless!

This book has been a big success in our house. My 5 year old loves the story and found the illustrations captivating. The story is heartwarming and a brilliant surprise to find her name actually in the book! Such a clever ideal! Very special! I have no reason not to give it 5stars!
