Create-A-Book personalized books are unique, hard bound, glossy cover books that feature your child as the main character of the story.

What if you hear a story about a person who has the same name as you, the same hair color, the same age and who lives in the same street and has the same friends? Wouldn’t you be more interested in the story?

Welcome to world of Create-A-Book! Here’s what makes our books so special. Imagine giving your child a beautiful hardbound book featuring him or her as the main character. With the use of a computer and printer, the child can be part of a story about fishing, riding in a fire truck, going to a ball game, or becoming a ballerina dancer. You can encourage your child to read while at the same time educate them about important issues that have a positive impact on individual character development. Parents will want to teach their children the importance of positive lifestyle choices, putting others first, or being a good sport. Create-A-Book books were written with positive messages for every child.

Create-A-Book books have been featured on major TV programs like Good Morning America and Oprah. Our distributors have negotiated book deals with some of the major companies like Disney and Nestle’s foods for publishing joint ventures. And to continue the success we have enjoyed, our focus remains on the continual improvement of our books, the individual success of our valued dealers, and of course, the overall positive impact of our books on the children we reach.
