*I received personalized copies of both books above for review purposes

The wonderful folks at Put Me In The Story sent me copies of National Geographic Little Kids Book of Animals and National Geographic Little Kids Books of Dinosaurs, which I personalized for my niece, Aeicha.

Both Little A and I were SO excited when these arrived in the mail and saw that they are even more awesome than anticipated. In the grand tradition of National Geographic magazines and books, both books feature gorgeous and engaging pictures. The animal photos in National Geographic Little Kids Book of Animals are bright and quite stunning, while the illustrations in National Geographic Little Kids Books of Dinosaurs are exciting and life-like. Each book is bursting with fun, fascinating, and age appropriate information.

And of course, Put Me In The Story goes above and beyond when it comes to the personalized touches in these new books! I love how each speaks directly to your little reader and uses their name when it asks them interactive questions. I know my little reader just loves seeing her name throughout the colorful, fun pages!

Both National Geographic Little Kids Book of Animals and National Geographic Little Kids Books of Dinosaurs are wonderfully engaging, educational, and perfect for the little explorers and readers in your life!
