Celebrate Your Child with 'The Magic of My Name'

I love reading to my children, and I especially love personalized books. My kiddos also love seeing their names in the many custom books on our bookshelf. My two oldest kids have amassed quite the collection of personalized titles, and I am now working on adding some to our library for my youngest daughter. When recently offered the chance to review The Magic of My Name in exchange for my honest opinion, I eagerly accepted the opportunity to add a new title to my home library.

Evaluation

I absolutely adore personalized children’s book, so I jumped at the opportunity to receive a copy of The Magic of My Name for my youngest daughter. Through a sweet bedtime story, the book tells her about her name by ascribing a positive attribute to each letter. For example, the first L is for lucky and the second L for lovely. As the little girl in the story finds herself saved by an eagle after almost falling in a volcano, the eagle tells her, “Don’t you see what your life is worth much more than a jewel? … You were so lucky, I think you name must have an L in it, for lucky.” Then when the little girl visits New Orleans, a fortune-teller tells her “I can see that you’re very lovely. I’m sure your name has the letter L.” I love the way in which the story reveals the meaning of each letter in my daughter’s name.

My oldest daughter is nearing age 7 and has been reading on her own for almost three years. The Magic of My Name is on the longer side, but she can easily read the text by herself. She loves reading the personalized book to her baby sister. My preschooler son also enjoys listening as his big sister or I read the story aloud. I appreciate the length of the story. Some personalized books have just a few words per page. The Magic of My Name is a full-length book complete with an impressive story. The pictures are also quite magical. Full of bright colors that really bring the story to life, the illustrations are also personalized. I was able to choose a main character with light skin and blonde hair that resembled my youngest.

Personalizing my copy of The Magic of My Name was quite simple. I began by typing in my daughter’s name and choosing a protagonist. I then clicked “See my book” to add a free dedication and select a language (English USA). After adding the standard book to my cart, I added the personalized hardback cover option. Once I finished the order, I received an email confirmation and my custom book arrived approximately a week later. The Magic of My Name: Lulu is a new favorite in my house. I am sure that my youngest daughter will enjoy my reading her special book to her again and again as she grows up.
