Toys and Games Reviews of IlluStory Make Your Own Story KitCustomer Review: Not just for kids! Summary: 4 Stars
For my daughter's first birthday, I wrote and illustrated a story for her about the day she was born. I'm no artist, mind you, but she loves it. (If you want to, I believe you can use the computer to make very simple sticker-like illustrations instead of drawing.) It was especially meaningful to her when her baby sister was born this last year. I am buying a new one for the little sister as well. I think it's a terrific idea for making a personalized keepsake FOR your child or grandchild.
The only drawback, you do have to be a little creative regarding the words per page limit.
Customer Review: Illustory is a Dream Come True Summary: 5 Stars
My eight year old nephew was delighted with his 'Illustory Make Your Own Story Kit' that I gave him for Christmas. It was the fact that his story would be published that intrigued him the most and got his creative juices flowing. I recommend this kit to anyone who wants to encourage a positive outlet for the creativity in every child; an outlet that requires no batteries, no game platform, no viewing screen and no produces noise. This kit teaches planning and execution in a way that is fun for the child and provides tangible results in the form of a published book. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
Customer Review: Super fun, educational keepsake Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this kit for my 6 year old daughter. She couldn't wait to start drawing. She dictated the story for each page and drew extra "love notes" on the remaining pages, and even deticated it to her Nan Nan. We opted to add the "About the auther" with a photo! My daughter did get impatient waiting for the book to come back,.. but since Katrina the mail has been very unreliable. Finally, her package arrived and she LOVED it! We rushed it right over to her Nan Nan. It is a perfect little book, that will be cherished forever. I've already bought 2 more!!
Customer Review: best kids creativity item ever! Summary: 5 Stars
Illustory is really awesome! Last year we did it for the first time and it turned out so cute! We gave one for a gift and kept one. It is a little costly but worth it! Def. send in a pic of your little writer because that is so neat how they write "About the Author" and your little one's face is in the book just like a real author and they describe his or her likes or dislikes. This cost extra but really made the book. I def. recommend this. You will see how your child gets better at writing each year if you do it yearly like we are doing.
Customer Review: We love this book! Summary: 5 Stars
We created our book online (you use the code from the kit to get your online book.) My daughter loved picking out all the colors, backgrounds, clipart, etc. We spent a couple weeks creating it, a couple pages at a time. When it was shipped to us I was pleasantly surprised with the quality. One page had some colors that were wrong (not what we had created) and I called them and they immediately fixed, reprinted, and sent us a new one. I was very pleased with the customer service! I just ordered two more to give as birthday presents.
