Customer Reviews:

So FUN!
Think Adlibs...you are asked to contribute to a story and get to be creative. Then you read the chapter you've just worked on. I loved this so much. I ordered it to do with my daughter but she's in bed and I'm still playing with it.
Very educational. Fabulous gift for Christmas

SO much fun -- and a book to keep forever!
I am a teacher of 3rd and 4th graders and love this product. The students have a great time creating their books -- they love that they can make their own choices, using their own names, friends and family, pets, etc. -- and the stories are more personal and fun than any other book they have.

To get to print the stories and have them professionally bound is such a treat. We can make a group book and then save it in the classroom for all future classes to read.

The kids also want to make their own books to give to their grandparents for the holidays.

As their teacher, my favorite part is that they learn so much more vocabulary along the way. It's just such fun and the kids are really being immersed in a total reading and writing environment. Highly recommended!!
