We are so excited to announce the release of our new Elmo Loves You! interactive children’s book in the Put Me In The Story iPad app! Your child will star in this interactive story alongside Elmo. The best part of the app is when Elmo tells your child “Elmo loves you!” over and over. He will even ask for a kiss! Elmo’s giggles will soon become contagious and your child will want to read this adorable story again!
This past week was the 50th anniversary of the Bologna Children’s Book Fair and saw our very own CEO and publisher, Dominique Raccah, provide the keynote address at the Tools of Change 2013 event on the day before the fair.
In her presentation on “The Changing World of Children’s Books” she spoke about how the empowering of children would change publishing as we know it. Interactive platforms, such as Put Me in the Story, are becoming increasingly popular in the U.S. Raccah stated, “We are at a space where books and print and apps intersect. Children respond to interactivity, as do parents because it is part of a virtuous circle of helping their child read.”
In a world of princesses, fairies, and mermaids, Isabella creates a space for scientists, doctors, and astronauts.
Women’s History Month is an important time to look back through our history and to celebrate the influential women who have overcome obstacles and paved the way for women of the future. It is important to raise our sons and daughters in a way that inspires them to make progress for equal opportunity for all women. We have come a long way and need to continue to unblock every door so that all dreams are possible for future generations.
I am excited about Poppy the pig being a part of the Put Me In The Story personalized platform because it’s such an innovative and creative way to really engage a child’s imagination within a book. There’s no better way, in my eyes, for a child to connect with a story than when they are the star of it! So just like Poppy, I can see how Put Me In The Story will encourage kids to Dream Big!
It’s been an incredibly exhilarating 90 days here at Put Me In The Story. A lot has happened in such a short time, and we have YOU to thank for that!
We’ve had so many people personalize our books. It’s amazing, and profoundly touching. We made a word cloud for the office with the names of the first couple hundred children that have been put into our stories. You can see it below. (Can you find your child’s name?)
Through the years, people have asked me where I get my ideas. For me, it’s through being an observer of life. Listening to people’s tellings. What moves them. But more so, listening for the themes that run through everyone’s journey. As unique as we all are, we share universal feelings about our most heartfelt experiences of love, loss, and family. I write to capture the “unique everybody.”
This is the week when we all talk about love a little more. When I had the idea for I Love You More I realized I wanted people to be talking about, expressing, showing, and sharing their love for one another all the time! It was first written for my nephew Tyler, as my sister and her husband were going through a difficult time. Soon I realized it was bigger than that, and that it was written so that all children might know, no matter what was going on in their lives or in the world around them how truly loved they are.
Give your child the perfect Valentine’s Day cards from their favorite characters. Print off these sweet sentiments and personalize them for the special ones in your life.
We are so excited to have Elmo as part of our family here at Put Me in the Story! For the first time ever, your child can be the star of a personalized book with Elmo. Elmo Loves You!, a bestselling children’s book from Sesame Workshop, will captivate your child and have them telling you all the things they love.
