Kingdom of You Personalised Book from Wonderbly

Posted on September 15, 2017 by Fiona Martin

Kingdom of You is a wonderful personalised book for your child from Wonderbly. Along with a range of titles such as The Little Boy who Lost his Name, there are a choice of books for your child in which their name appears throughout in an enchanting and engaging tale.

What I like about Kingdom of You and the other books available is not only is your child’s name published throughout, you have a choice of characters and various other options to tailor it to your child’s tastes and likes.

Kingdom of You is about a child who dislikes tidying his room (anyone have one of those? I know I do!) and then the laundry genie appears and grants him three wishes. These will all be things that your child thinks are great but unfortunately having all these isn’t as good as it seems so fortunately the genie grants a fourth wish in which everything goes back to normal.

The book is well thought out and engaging with full colour pictures on each page. My little boy loved to read the text then spend a few minutes checking out the picture and telling me what was going on and what he thought was going to happen next.

Kingdom of You from Wonderbly was a big hit with my little boy and we have read it many times over. There’s nothing more a child loves than seeing their name in a book and putting themselves in place of the character throughout the story. We’ve been entertained and loved reading the adventure together – a really special book for a child to treasure!

Have you checked out the personalised books at Wonderbly? Perfect for gifts or special occasions – any child is sure to love receiving one of these!

Finding Dory – Book of the Film

Posted on December 22, 2016 by Fiona Martin

Disney Pixar Finding Dory Book of the Film from Parragon books tells the sequel story to the Finding Nemo film that was a big hit a few years ago. We haven’t seen the film Finding Dory but the children were exciting to receive the book and get reading. My 8yr old read it herself over a a couple of weeks and really enjoyed it. She then passed it to her younger brother age 6 who was really keen to listen to the story and we happily read him a couple of chapters each night before bed.

Forgetful Dory is very happy living in the ocean with her friends, Marlin and Nemo. But one day, memories of her long-lost parents come flooding back to her. With the help of old friends and new, including Hank the septopus, can Dory finally discover her past?

The story follows Dory on her adventures where she meets old friends such as Destiny the whale who recognises her and helps tell her about her past. She finds many friendly faces along the way in this exciting adventure.

In the centre of the book are 8 full colour picture pages which really help bring the story to life. Mister B, my 6 year old really enjoyed looking at these to remind him what the characters looked like and retell the story in his own words. The chapters are short meaning you can easily pick the book up and just read a few pages or a few chapters if you have more time.

Both children have enjoyed the story and found it fun to read and listen to. For any fans of the Finding Nemo or Finding Dory films then this is the perfect book to keep them entertained and read about all the fishy friends having fun together.

My Big Monster Book of Fun – Review

Posted on November 13, 2015 by Fiona Martin

My Big Monster Book of Fun from Parragon books is a jam packed activity book for little ones with over 190 pages of fun things to read and do. It reall

The book is divided into sections, starting first with a 24 page rhyming story ‘Scaredy Boo!’ accompanied by full colour page illustrations to keep little ones entertained. There are then sections for monster activities, colouring, T-Rex Terror, dinosaur activities, dinosaur colouring and an answer section to the puzzles throughout the book.

The activities are so varied from spotting differences, putting monsters in order, finishing drawing some zombies etc that it will keep children interested and motivated to work through the book. It’s also an easy book to pick up and put down as an when you please. My little boy loves this and often picks it up to do a few pages.

As well as having at home this would be great to take away on holiday to keep children entertained or whilst travelling as it’s self contained with loads of things to do, you just need a few pencils!

We love My Big Monster Book of Fun and it has provided many hours of fun.
