The book is perfect
The book is perfect. It arrived slightly damaged which was disappointing but I assume it was the courier service. The book itself is amazing.

My experience was absolutely amazing
My experience was absolutely amazing!
My only thing was the book was ordered for a boy and the box came pink, I almost fainted thinking it might have been a girl focused book, while order was for a boy.
Thanks

The quality of the product is superb and the committed time was upheld . the only thing I would recommend be improved was the courier company confirming that they were delivering that day - but a minor detail

Your customer service is great
Your customer service is great. I love the books. I've bought 5 books. It is such a great gift. I would love for you to get a variety of stories. Looking forward to it. I'm not sure if I am missing how to view the whole book? I bought 2 books and have I seen the whole book would have changed my choices
