Today’s post is a departure from my normal posts, since this spotlighted website is one for parents, not for kids.  However, the site I’d like to spotlight is such a great one, the non-sequitor is absolutely worth it.

At Avially Books, you can order PERSONALIZED books for your child or any other important child in your life.  Your child’s name, gender, age, and city are worked into the story.  Some books include other details, such as their school and teacher.  We have bought dozens of these books as birthday presents for kids ages 0-9 over the last several years.  The Sesame Street ones are great for younger kids, and preschool and school-aged kids love School is Fun.  Your favorite little girl will adore either the Ballerina Princess or Mermaid book — featuring her, of course — and your favorite little boy will love reading about his adventures with Dinosaurs, Batman, or Spider Man.  There are over 20 books from which to choose.

The benefits of reading to our children has been cited in study after study.  Kids of all ages love being read to, and parents also enjoy the snuggle time and the looks of wonder in their little ones’ eyes as the stories unfold.  These books are some real gems…our boys still enjoy hearing the stories that talk about them as a 1-year-old and a 3-year-old!  Two more benefits: all the books but one are less than $15 (the one exception is $15.95), and all are delivered to your door in 7-10 days from when you place your order.

Enjoy!
