IlluStory Make Your Own Story Kit

I bought this kit for my daughter and she used it to make a Chritsmas gift for her grandmother. She had a wonderful time creating the story, and the end result was really nice. The price is reasonable given it includes shipping and the finished book. Since we were giving a gift, the extra charges for additional copies and rush shipping were worth it to us. Overall, a great deal for my second grader.

Our grandson is nine years old and a great artist and writer. It will be nice to preserve his work to enjoy over the years in a "permanent" way-and perhaps, if he becomes "famous" some day, we will have a record of his early work.

I love this product. I have bought 2 in the passed and loved them. It's a great gift to give and the child you give it to have a treasure forever. It shows the creativity of the child. Love, love, love this book.

I thought this would actually be reprinted and bound, but the pages in the book were (it looked like it, anyway) the actual pages we had mailed in. The pictures bled through the pages and there were visible lines everywhere. Maybe it would have been better to do it online, but I think we could have probably done a much better "publishing" job here at home.

With this kit you or your child(ren) can write up to 12 pages of text, each with its own illustration, send it off to the company, and receive a professionally printed hardbound book in a few weeks. There are even options to get gift books, each with its own unique dedication page! An 'About the Author' section really personalizes the experience.

Everything you need is in the kit -- instructions, paper (including practice sheets) and pens. There's even a postage-paid envelope, so when you're finished writing you can just drop it into a mailbox. We could not be happier with this product. It was fun and easy, brought out the kids' imagination, and the product we received was beautifully finished.

Highest recommendation.
