I chose this story for my daughter and her daughter Harlow-Forever to show the love between them. Harlow-Forever is disabled and in a wheelchair, seeing her depicted walking was beautiful and I hope it encourages her to continue practicing her standing. The quality of the book is outstanding and the photos used are great. The process was easy and delivery was pretty fast.
Decided to order these books as my granddaughters love to read.. Plenty of time to upload photos, change them around and write a personal note in the book. They were delivered quickly and look even better in reality.. Cant wait for them to see themselves in their own little book. They are super quality.
Great personalized book for my 4 year old grandson. Ease of ordering and delivery was quick!
The book is amazing. Very good quality. The order came fast enough. Appreciated
Using Memabooks was so easy. They allowed me to make changes to really customize my book. Oleg always got back to me promptly. I choose different sports, animals etc that related to my family. This will truly make a wonderful keepsake for my Grandson. Very happy. Thanks Oleg and your team.
Very nice book. It was easy to edit and the delivery was on time. Very happy.
The book I purchased is for my first grandchild's 1st Birthday. It was so easy to order too. I actually bought it for Christmas, but I was so surprised at how well it turned out I have decided to keep it for his birthday. The illustrations are beautiful and the stories are really lovely. These books are so special and will be such a wonderful keepsake. The delivery was very quick and they even emailed me to make sure everything was okay
Seeing my Granddaughter look at every page with excitement and saying.......Nana ,thats me, thats me. Beautifully illustrated and lovely story. Highly recommend anyone to get one for their child or grandchild. What a joy it gave me
I ordered a paperback book for my granddaughter for Christmas. I was so pleased with the quality of the book and the details on each page. I looked at other companies and none compared to this one. I’m so excited for my granddaughter to see herself in the book.
Beautiful book. My granddaughter will love it when I give it to her for Christmas. Excellent quality paper. Quick delivery. I will definitely buy from Memabooks again.
The process was easy and straightforward. The quality was outstanding, and the book was fabulous. My cousin was thrilled to receive it.
Everything from the start to the finish, there are so many of this type of company and l suppose they are all good, but this one stands out for me. The finished item fantastic, and if you want to change the wording or the grammar is not quite correct its no bother. Will be using again and again as my grandchildren get older.
The book itself is really great and has an uplifting and positive tone. I was really impressed with the personal touch via emails when there was a small hiccup in processing the order. I will definitely order from Memabooks again and will be recommending this online store to my friends and family.
so easy ,even for a technophobe to complete and so many options for a really special book, the stories are lovely,the pictures are lovely and to add your little persons name and pictures its magical. I cannot tell you how so very pleased with the whole process and the icing on the cake a personlised book arriving very quickly ,excellent company.
Absolutely gorgeous, worth every cent. Have already ordered a second one ❤️❤️❤️
I recently got two books. One for my granddaughter and one for my grandson. There were a number of options to choose from including age group. The quality of the book is top notch. The stories were awesome and the grandkids loved that they could see themselves in the book. From the time I ordered to the time they were delivered was less than 2 weeks. Great customer service and they are very prompt in replying to inquiries.
It is the best gift I could ever give my niece in her life. We love it ❤️
Very good quality of photos and material as well I really liked the books I made for my kid in his birthday and will order again! I recommend 100% 😊😊
I had 2 of these books made my grandaughters love them.They are lovely and really quick delivery very impressed with this company.I will be ordering more.
The whole process was easy and painless. Getting the book was a breeze. It arrived super quickly, the quality was fantastic, and the customer service team was amazing. Seeing my grandchild's face light up when he saw himself as the hero in the story was absolutely unforgettable!
Great surprise and the quality of the books is excellent, my granddaughter was very happy when she saw her image in the books. Thank you very much
I believed that Memabooks is one of the best companies to personalize your child perfect book story, the transaction is secure, great and fast delivery, and the final product will be a memorable treasure to keep, the company makes sure that before printing your personal pictures used for the book, are kept private and all corrections are taken into consideration, as well as suggestions from the client will be respected, the final result is a personalized book, that will be unique and special for each child and their love ones!
What I appreciate is that the books came and were exactly what I expected. I am uncomfortable buying off the internet because sometimes you don't know what you'll get. But Memabooks delivered. Excellent quality, exactly what I ordered and they came right within the timeline they gave which I also appreciate especially since it was a gift.
This is the one and only book that I experimented with that truly showed my granddaughters face. She will definitely know it's her in the book! I love it and I know she will too when she gets it for Christmas. And interacting with the people was fantastic! I highly recommend this site!!!
Very easy to purchase, beautiful quality and very good service delivery very prompt. Would highly recommend it. Teresa

Someone always got back to me to answer my question. The book is fabulous with the picture of Cicily in it. I love it! Thank you once again. .
Although the book is wonderful, it is a Christmas gift for my great-niece. However, her mom, dad, and grandparents have read it and cannot stop talking about it, and we all know she will love it so, so much. Thank you over and over again.
I’m very satisfy with this book. It’s beautiful and I’m sure my granddaughter will be happy when she sees it. It’s a Christmas gift for her. Thank you for this beautiful book ❤️
This book is beautifully illustrated. My 2 year old grandaughter recongnised herself straight away. She wasbso excited. When i finshed the book shw kept saying again again. Just made our day
Absolutely amazing book, so colorful and delightful. Can't wait to give it to her, I have to be patient though, she has 2 brothers and 1 sister, so I have to buy books for my other 3 Grandchildren first.... I have become a customer for the next 4 years at least. ☺️
Loved the whole process with Memabooks!! They made it so easy to pick out a story and add my granddaughter's picture to create the book. I was able to change outfits, color of outfits, hairstyles and I was also able to customize some of the text of the story!! That was amazing! It shipped quickly and the communication from Memabooks was excellent! They answered all my questions and followed up with me after the book arrived to ensure my satisfaction. I highly recommend using this company! I plan to make a book every year for all three of my grandkids!
What a fantastic book … this will never fail to amaze her as she gets older,,the excitement being she is in the story itwill stay with her for life xx

Lovely and simple story my granddaughter loved it. The quality of the book is really good. They kept me informed as to when it would be ready.
A great gift for my Grandson. The pictures of him were very lifelike and the story was lovely. Liked the option to change the pictures of him on each page. Quick delivery. Would order again.
The books are beautiful. The boys look perfect. They love their books and so did their parents.
What a beautiful book, my granddaughter loved looking at the animals and her little face being part of the story. She is 18 months old and loves looking at books, which her parents read to her on a regular basis. Her parents thinks it is an amazing book.
Great present for my Grandson. His face in the book looks just like him and it is such a lovely story. It’s easy to do and if you don’t like the picture being used you have the option to choose another one. Delivery was quick and I was kept updated at every stage of production. Would buy again
I bought this for my first grandchild who is 18 months old! It WAS going to be a Christmas gift, but I can’t wait that long to give it to her! She loves you reading books to her now and she’s absolutely gonna love this because we do!… excellent product I’ll be given it to her in a couple of days😊
Simply beautifull. Ordering was simple , nice you were also given choices. Highly recommend. A gift to treasure
I am thrilled with the book I received and they were very responsive to my requests all along the way. Highly recommend!
Love it so much! The illustrations were spot on! Thank you!!!
Such a great product! I loved the ability to make adjustments to the text and photos. Book is simply beautiful and great quality.
I was a little apprehensive ordering at first, but following excellent reviews I didn’t hesitate and so happy I did. Have just received my personalised book for my grandson and the likeness from the photo is outstanding. Quality of the book, the beautiful illustrations is first class. To top it all off being able to not only write a personable message in the front of the book, it allows you to also upload a precious photo too. I can’t wait to give it to my grandson and read it together
Excellent quality. Lovely stories and fast delivery. Great communicstion and customer service. I bought 2 different books
This was my first order for my very first grandchild, so it will always hold a special place in my heart. It will be a beautiful memory that we can cherish forever. The item is absolutely beautiful and looks exactly like what was shown and advertised on your website. I’m so happy with my purchase
Great and beautiful all family like it
I ordered the book for our grandson Levi. I received it about a week ago and it literally took our breath away. It is spot on. I have shown our 2 daughters and they LOVED it. We are giving it to him on his birthday Sept 7. And so very excited as his mom teddy’s to him every day and now he will be the star if the book. Thank you so much for such a beautiful momento for our grandson. Thank you kindly, Eileen xoxo 🙏🏼🎉❤️☦️
Excellent Book, excellent story. I bought this book for our foster daughter as she will be leaving us in November. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for making this little girl the hero of this book in the story. This describes our little person so well and this book shows her love and kindness we see everyday. Well done team you guys made a big difference. And that’s what its all about making the difference!!
A huge thank you to MemaBooks, and in particular to Oleg and the wonderful team who handled my request for additional copies of a very special book that my late father made for my daughter. Their kindness, generosity and courtesy throughout the whole process were truly exceptional. They understood how much the book meant to our family and went above and beyond to help me. The additional copies arrived incredibly quickly and the quality of the book is amazing. It’s rare to come across such genuinely thoughtful and caring customer service. I’m so grateful to Oleg and the team for helping us preserve something so precious to our family. I cannot recommend MemaBooks highly enough. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Very easy to order Lovely I could choose different photos Very happy with the quality of the book My granddaughter loves it.
Easy to edit and order. You can go back several times to edit it. Easy to navigate and I love the way you can leave a personal message. Beautiful quality. Glossy pages. I've got this for my 4 tear old Grandson for Hallowe'en so he hasn't seen it yet...but I love it I received an email with a link to QR code saying it was a gift for my Grandson...it wasn't - it was 30% off another order so it was purely for sales. I contacted the company and pointed this out - they said that they would edit it to reflect it's true purpose
The main thing is that I really like the book that I ordered for my granddaughter's birthday. Very good quality book. I liked that you have several options for each page you can choose from. It's easy to make a payment. It took 2 weeks from ordering to receiving the book.
Beautiful book, fun to create. Absolutely delighted with it on arrival, such a lovely gift. The whole experience was easy, would recommend this company without any hesitation! x
Amazing book and great quality!
I was sceptical, but needn't have been. The book is beautiful, high quality and very skilled adaptation to the photos. Absolutely delighted. Highly recommend.
Memabooks has created something truly special! ❤️📖 There’s something magical about seeing a child’s own face and pictures become part of their very own storybook. Story time feels completely different and beautiful when your child sees themselves on the book— it makes the story personal, exciting, and unforgettable. What I love most is how it turns an ordinary bedtime story into a moment of pride, imagination, and connection. It’s not just a book they read; it becomes their own story. The child that I gave the book to wants to read the book again and again. The quality, creativity, and personalisation make Memabooks such a beautiful idea for children and such a meaningful keepsake for parents. Watching a child recognise themselves in the story and get excited to turn each page is absolutely priceless. 🥰 Memabooks doesn’t just create books — they create memories that children can hold in their hands and treasure for years to come. ✨ Absolutely recommend it to anyone looking for a unique, personal and unforgettable gift for a child! ❤️
I ordered books for my 5 grandchildren and they are amazing! The quality and photos of them in the books are just great. I would highly recommend 😊
Customer service was kind and personal. Product itself is top quality! Can't wait to give this to our granddaughter!!
I recently purchased a book from Memabooks for my Granddaughter for her birthday The story and illustrations are absolutely beautiful and they also included a personal message from us which was delightful I would highly recommend these books as birthday gifts or Christmas gifts A lovely company to deal with Delivery time and price are excellent
An absolute bedtime favorite! The bright, charming illustrations and sweet rhyming text had our three-year-old completely hooked from page one. It has a wonderful message with our grandson's AI created images on every page. Quality of this wee book outstanding. Order placed quickly and delivered on time. Highly recommend!
The book is amazing, what a lovely gift for my granddaughter, I definitely will be getting more 😊
Great quality and beautiful illustrations and story line. Well worth the purchase
The book is adorable, exactly as described/ordered. Lovely quality product with great customer service.
This book I purchased for my grandson and he cannot put it down! He loves it
My lovely four year old granddaughter absolutely loves her book and it seems even more real to her as she actually has a soft toy dog called Pip
What a beautiful, special book! The illustrations are wonderful! My Granddaughter loved it!
Quick response, updated by email on progress, good quality 👍
I've ordered a book for my granddaughter's 2nd bday. I saw an advert in social media & saw a preview of how my book will appear. It was great that I could pick different photos & style before I decided on final outcome. It gave me lots of choices. I was hesitant at first as I chose, bought & paid for my final book as I've experienced untrustworthy online sellers before. But Memabooks are good, they have replied to my emails & helped me when I've experienced delivery problems from the courier. The quality of the book is also good with vivid colors & the photos I picked very much looked like my granddaughter. Make sure you pick clear good photos to have good results.
Absolutely loved the personalised book! The quality is amazing, beautifully made, and every detail is perfect. It made such a special keepsake, and Alayna loved it. Highly recommend!❣️
I was a bit sceptical at first, but there was no need. It was a very good production and the delight I received when presenting the book to my granddaughter meant everything to me
I was very sceptical at first, not trusting online sites but my worries were unfounded. The whole process of ordering was easy and there was a chance to alter anything up to processing the final order. The end product; a personalised children's book; was produced with high quality and well made. It was also quickly dispatched and shipped. Regular tracking updates were received. It was intended for a child's birthday present but having seen it I had to give it to her, her face spoke volumes of what she thought.
The quality and the design are amazing and I love it. My granddaughter was over the moon and so happy to see her in the story. Beautifully put together
I had an amazing experience with Memabooks! Ordering was incredibly easy, I simply chose a story, uploaded a photo, and they took care of the rest. The payment process was smooth, I received my downloadable PDF instantly, and the book arrived exactly on time with UPS tracking. I even needed a name correction due to my own mistake, and their customer service was outstanding, they updated the PDF quickly with no hassle. The quality, communication, and overall experience were excellent. I highly recommend them for anyone looking for a beautiful, personalized gift for a little one!

Excellent service and an excellent product! I could not be more pleased with this book which I am sure my granddaughter will cherish for years to come. This will be a birthday present that won't be forgotten or sold in a yard sale! I would highly recommend this unique treasure 👍🏻👍🏻
My child's face lit up when they realized they were the main character in the story! It made reading so much more exciting and personal. The story is sweet, easy to follow, and shares a wonderful message about kindness and helping others. Such a special book that we'll definitely read again and again!
I really want to thank Oleg for helping me throughout my journey to make it better. We really like it and my boy was so surprised and happy to see himself in the book. The book was awesome. Thank you so much Oleg.
This book is absolutely wonderful! Seeing my son's picture throughout the story made it so special and exciting for him. He was smiling from beginning to end and loved being part of the adventure. The story is kind, sweet, and easy for children to enjoy. The illustrations are beautiful, colorful, and engaging, making every page fun to explore. My son especially loves looking at the pictures and finding himself in the book. This has quickly become one of his favorite books, and he asks to read it every night before bed. It keeps his attention, encourages his love of reading, and creates precious moments for our family. I highly recommend this personalized book to any parent looking for a meaningful and memorable reading experience. The combination of a lovely story and personalized pictures makes it a keepsake that we will treasure for years to come.
The best experience my child had so far! The quality, the idea behind, the little stories - everything's perfect.
Highly recommend! Our baby loves books very much. Thank you 🤍

The quality is fantastic, and it has quickly become her favorite bedtime story. It's such a special keepsake that we will treasure forever. Highly recommend for anyone looking to make their little one feel extra special!
Adorable book so beautiful and very lifelike, easy to order with very helpful preview and choice of image. Fast delivery, excellent service. Would highly recommend Mematime and will be returning for future gifts. Exceptional service. Thank you Mematime.
We love the product and the book arrived quickly. The product was of excellent quality and met all of our expectations.
I had a really lovely experience with Mematime. My child Janan absolutely loved the book ❤️ It was so special for him to see his own name and even his photo inside the story - he was so excited and proud! The quality of the book is excellent. The printing is clear, the colors are beautiful and vibrant, and the pages feel really high quality and durable. Everything looks very well made and professional. There was a small issue at the beginning, but the team handled it very kindly and professionally and resolved it quickly. Their customer service was very responsive and caring throughout. Overall, I'm very happy with both the product and the experience. It feels personal, meaningful, and beautifully made. I would definitely recommend Mematime to other parents looking for a special gift for their children 😊
I had a wonderful experience ordering a personalized book from Mematime. The quality of the book is excellent, the story is beautiful, and the customization makes it truly special. Seeing a child become the main character of the story creates a magical and meaningful experience. The customer support was also fantastic, very responsive, kind, and helpful throughout the whole process. Shipping was smooth and the book arrived safely and on time. It's a very creative idea and a beautiful product that can create a lasting memory for families. I'm happy to leave this review to support their work and help other parents discover something truly special for their children. Highly recommended. 📚✨
Great service. I have purchased similar kind of books previously from other companies and have to say this one was outstanding. The pictures blend into the book and the child becomes perfectly part of the book. My granddaughter faical expression on seeing the book she said oh Wow. Would recommend to anyone who has a child interested in books.
My daughter absolutely loved it! The quality is perfect
I recently ordered a personalized book for my daughter from Mematime Books, and it is honestly the most beautiful thing. Seeing her face as the main character of her own story is truly magical. The quality is exceptional, and it feels so special to hold these memories in our hands. We absolutely love it!
Ordered for my granddaughter Bella and it turned out really nice. The quality is better than I expected and the service was fast and friendly. I’ll probably order another one.
I usually have a hard time choosing gifts for babies because everything looks the same. I ordered a personalized book for my friend’s child and it was easy to do from start to finish. The final book matched what I saw in the preview. The parents liked it, so I’m happy with the purchase.
My kids loved their books so much !!! So creative!❤️
Bought this as a gift for my niece and it was a huge hit. She was amazed to see herself in the story and now wants it read every single night. The best idea for a gift!
As a parent, I’m always looking for meaningful gifts, and this personalized book was truly magical. My 7-year-old daughter, Sophia, absolutely adored it from the moment she opened it. Seeing herself in the story — with her own face — made the whole experience so special and engaging. Her favorite part was the page where she is shown as a musician. Sophia plays two instruments, and that page made her light up with pride. She kept pointing at it and saying, “That’s me!” It was beautiful to see how seen and encouraged she felt. The quality is excellent, the story is thoughtful, and the personalization is done with so much care. This book didn’t just entertain her — it boosted her confidence and made her feel celebrated. I can’t recommend this enough for parents looking for a unique, meaningful gift their child will truly treasure.
Bought their custom book as a New Year’s gift for my son, and he was so happy seeing himself as a book hero. The quality is amazing, and the face match was perfect. Such an amazing gift idea.
