My Best Book

Personalised children's books with the child as the main character

My Best Book is a publisher specialising in personalised children's books: the child's name, their appearance (hairstyle, hair colour and skin tone) and details of their family environment, such as siblings or pets, are incorporated into the story so that the little one is the main character. The company presents the personalised book as an ideal gift and sells its catalogue through its online shop.

Own catalogue: plots by age and interests

The catalogue is organised by age ranges and themes. Among the own titles shown on the website are:

• Spooky Book (5 to 9 years), a suspense story with ghosts and monsters set in a haunted house.
• Start Your Engines (3 to 5 years), featuring a little lost machine.
• Sweet Farm Animals (0 to 3 years), a visit to a small organic farm.
• Sibling Love (0 to 10 years), designed for families with two or three siblings.
• Cool Car Book (0 to 4 years), for early readers who love vehicles.

Most of these titles were offered at £22.99.

Disney Collection

The company has a line of personalised books based on Disney characters, in which the child shares the story with classic figures. The selection includes titles set in the playground with Donald Duck and his nephews, a day at Mickey Mouse's farm and a journey through the kingdoms of the Disney Princesses.

How ordering works

The purchase process is divided into three steps: choosing the book according to the child's age and interests, personalising it with their name and physical features, and printing and delivering it to their home. The website states free shipping on all orders over £40.

Track record and sales volume

According to data published by the company itself, since 2014 it has sent more than two million personalised books and has accumulated more than 1.5 million customers. The website also shows an average rating of 4.7 out of 5 stars. The firm stresses that its content is created by people, without using artificial intelligence.

Languages and customer service

The shop offers its interface in around twenty languages, including Spanish, English, French, German, Italian, Dutch and the main Scandinavian and Central and Eastern European languages. It has a contact form with categorised reasons, such as questions about delivery times, delays, errors in the order or address, payments, website issues, suggestions and collaborations. The company also maintains a newsletter with a 10% discount on the next order for subscribers.
