Beautiful Gift for a Newborn!

Nothing says "thoughtful" like a personalized gift. It shows that you really put some thought and effort into the gift and also is especially meaningful to the recipient. When my daughter was born 29 years ago someone gave me a personalized book about her birth and we have enjoyed it many times over the years and it still occupies a prized location in our bookshelf. I will be very pleased to give this book to my daughter and her husband when she gives birth soon!


Second Time A Charm

I love this book and the concept of the personalization; however, it must be created by AI or something, as two different attempts never did come out as I anticipated...but no complaints about it. I needed a Dinosaur themed book with my grandson's name on it - and that's what I got!


Beloved gift

I have given several of these personalized books to new parents, and they are always very appreciated. The quality and illustrations are excellent!


The PERFECT gift for young babes!

I routinely recommend UG for the unique presents but these personalized books blew us away! The color and detail were amazing! These will inspire the Little Ones to read for years to come. We passed them around & oh'd and ah'd for the longest!


Perfect gift for parents of a newborn

I ordered this personalized book as a gift for my niece and her husband on the occasion of the birth of their daughter. Because the baby has a very short first name and her parents intend to call her by her first and middle names, I checked to see if I could include both and the answer was "yes." i knew my niece would be getting a zillion gifts, and I also knew she would not get another one of these. Unlike clothing or stuffed toys, the child will not outgrow this book. My niece's thank you note said the book was clever and beautiful and they looked forward to reading it to the baby when she was old enough, confirming that it was a terrific gift. #sweepstakes

Customer questions


Hello, sending my inquiry again because I would really like to order this book as a gift and the old Q&As are ambiguous: If the total is under 15 characters, will it work to include the child's first and middle name (separated by a space) in the First Name field, i.e., "Emily Jane"? If the cover will read "Emily Jane's / Very Own Name" that would work well. Thank you for your assistance.

Verified reply from Cassandre

You may include a middle name in the "CHILD'S FIRST NAME" field if it does not exceed the character limit.


Will you ship to Israel?

Verified reply from Amy

Hi Lori! Yes, this item ships to Israel. Make sure you select Israel under the "shipping to" tab on the bottom right of the website.


Can this book be written in Spanish?

Verified reply from Allison

¡Qué maravilloso! Aunque sí ofrecemos eso, está disponible en otros sitios.


Can a Middle Name be used instead of the Last Name?

Verified reply from Richard

Unfortunately you cannot use a middle name.


If there are repeat letters, like Anna, are do the same animals bring the same letters of the name? Thinking we should go with the Good Night book instead if the same animals present the same letters.

Verified reply from Ali

Thank you for your question! When there are repeat letters in the name, different animals will bring the repeat letters of the name.


Can you include a middle name if the total of the letters of the first, middle and last names are no more than the 30 letter maximum?

Verified reply from Ali

Thank you for your question! At this time there is only 30 letters maximum in the name field so whatever name is entered has to fit that limit.
