HarperCollins Children’s Books and their
customised publishing partner, Penwizard have joined forces with Noddy licensor, Chorion, to
create the first ever Noddy personalised books with customised storylines and images. Customers
create their book online at www.mynoddybook.co.uk to include the child’s name, hair style and colour, eye colour and skin
tone to recreate an image of the child. There’s even the option to add a
personal message. The simple three step
process takes just a few minutes to complete and books are delivered either direct to the child or to
the customer within 5 to 14 days. On launch there will be three personalized Noddy
adventures to choose from. In *Name* Saves Toy Town, All the
colours in toy town get washed away and the child flies with Noddy into a
rainbow to get the colour back but will things ever be the same again…
In A Gift for *Name* and A
Christmas Gift for *Name*, Noddy goes off in search of the perfect gift for
the chosen child’s special occasion and finally sings the child a specially composed song. The books are printed using
advanced digital offset printing presses and can be printed in multiple languages from a single
location.
The customised Noddy adventures are available
at www.mynoddybook.co.uk and offer a quality gift solution and an interactive
reading experience which will harness the interest of younger readers as they
become the stars of the story!
For the first time ever, children get the
chance to enter Toy Town and star alongside ever-popular children’s character,
Noddy in their very own unique adventure…
