11/20/2012: Sourcebooks Announces Personalized Children’s App—Bestselling Books Starring Your Child! |
Recent Media Highlights:
 |
“When most publishers talk about personalizing digital children’s books, they usually mean letting customers add a child’s name or picture to a front page of a favorite storybook. Sourcebooks, a midsize publisher in Naperville, Ill., is introducing an app, Put Me in the Story, that goes a step further. It will make it possible for a purchaser to take best-selling Sourcebook titles like Dream Big Little Pig!, an inspirational book by the figure-skating Olympian Kristi Yamaguchi, and The Night Night Book, a rhyming board book by Marianne Richmond, and essentially add a child as a character throughout the text.” |
|
 |
“‘Put me in the story, mom!’ Now you really can. What would your child say if you started reading a picture book at bedtime and her name popped up in the middle of the story? You may have an opportunity to find out with the new app Put Me in the Story...” |
|
 |
“A wonderful tool to aid in the development of your child’s language skills and improves attention span through interactive reading… This app is a great tool for any parent seekin an innovative approace to teaching their child how to read.” |

“When I was little I visited my cousins’ house often. Even though they were much older they always had the best toys and games. One of my favorite memories of their house was a personalized story book they had with all of their names in it. It was a regular children’s story but instead of fictional characters it actually named my cousins. It was so neat and I always wanted a book just like it... We’ve been so pleased with the Put Me In The Story books that we recommend them to anyone looking for the perfect children’s gift. The books are a true keepsake that will be treasured in years to come and I can’t wait to surprise Kora & Logan’s cousins with books of their own one day!” |

These would be a hit for any kid because a story just seems to come to life more when it is personalized with the child's name throughout the story. I love the other books they offer as well and I am sure the app would be a big hit too for kids who love eBooks.” — Melissa @ Outnumbered 3 to 1 | |

“Kinsley loves reading this book over and over. It feels personal to her, like I am not just reading a book but saying each word to her specifically. The book was so easy to customize and shipping was much faster than I expected. It was a huge hit with my baby girl!” — http://katenkaboodle.com/2013/02/20/put-me-in-the-story/ |

| • | “All of these books are actual titles you could find in stores; they are just changed to include your child's name. Other personalized book places have their own stories they personalize, but that is not the case here!” — http://shootingstarsmag.blogspot.com/2013/03/put-me-in-story-product-review |

“We have quite a few personalized books, but I have never seen such great personalized books before. I love that these aren't just made up stories with my child's name in them and instead are books that are bestsellers, award winners, and/or classic books.” — http://secondtimearound09.blogspot.com |
