And great for children who are not old enough to read - they still realise it's about them. <br /><br />Iota - GM talk sounds fascinating. I wonder if our blogs will serve as historical records for our children to know more about our lives?<br /><br />HomeOfficeMum - interesting! It's a great concept.<br /><br />ExpatMum - yes, they are definitely ones to keep.<br /><br />KnackeredMother - yes, it's rather a good word. Very Jane Austen-ish.<br /><br />Tanya - there are some books especially for babies! Sure she would love it.<br /><br />Muddling Along, ElsieB - enjoy!nappy valley girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10788949037047084412noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7290395635850697105.post-554451466751511792010-12-15T09:25:36.584-05:002010-12-15T09:25:36.584-05:00sounds amazing! - am off over to the website! xsounds amazing! - am off over to the website! xElsie Buttonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03768998561385293241noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7290395635850697105.post-30379902730309380472010-12-15T08:18:58.998-05:002010-12-15T08:18:58.998-05:00What a great idea - off for a lookWhat a great idea - off for a lookMuddling Alonghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04702217530704657676noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7290395635850697105.post-72808884923899957752010-12-14T16:57:28.335-05:002010-12-14T16:57:28.335-05:00You know, I think I've heard of this....def a ...You know, I think I've heard of this....def a gem of an idea.

Wow.<br /><br />The book idea is great. My 17 year old had one bought for her when she was little - no photos, but the story was all about her and her best friend (who's still very much in her life). It's a keepsake.Expat mumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17798190669591053390noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7290395635850697105.post-91606924257013128672010-12-14T11:19:45.301-05:002010-12-14T11:19:45.301-05:00I just wrote a press release for a very similar co...I just wrote a press release for a very similar concept - French company that is coming to UK.

I'm increasingly realising the importance of stories in our lives: how we tell our own individual stories, how we tell our national stories, how we form our identities by our stories. So anything that helps children with the idea of their own story is great, in my book.<br /><br />I recently went to hear Greg Mortenson (Three Cups of Tea), and he was saying how impoverished we are as a society because our children don't have the opportunity to hear their grandparents (or other elders) talk about their lives. He was quite passionate about it, which I thought was interesting - given all the other stuff he had to talk about re building schools in Afghanistan.Iota https://www.blogger.com/profile/08507184283437057648noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7290395635850697105.post-36089746404388773932010-12-13T19:34:42.999-05:002010-12-13T19:34:42.999-05:00Those look great!
