The story behind NAMEE personalized books
Hello, we're loving parents and enthusiastic storytellers. Children are our inspiration and books are our passion. Let us introduce you to our story!
Hi there!
Behind the scenes, NAMEE is run by a team of loving parents, who decided to embrace the world of storytelling. We believe in the power of a child’s imagination. That’s why our books are inspired by our own childrens’ stories. Our little, fearless leaders are the ones who brought us into this and continue to guide the stories you read with your families.
Our mission
Our mission is to create unforgettable bonding moments between children and families with one-of-a-kind, personalized books full of adventure, excitement and learning.
How'd it start? We became parents.
It’s the hardest, most rewarding job in the world. We constantly question our ability to raise these little ones. Am I doing enough? Is our bond as good as I think it is? Am I showing enough love? Do I spend enough time with them? Are they good to other kids? Am I supporting my partner in their parenting journey?
Looking for answers, the solution became clear, and it was NAMEE. We know that reading stories together is an essential part of bonding and learning with kids. By personalizing story time, our books elicit a surprisingly emotional moment for the whole family. It’s a significant part of the parenting experience.
In the early days of NAMEE, we wrote stories we thought our own kids would love. When we proudly read them aloud, and the kids looked at us like we were amateur storytellers. On top of that, they had notes. Lots and lots of notes. The rejection of our imaginations was both hilarious and humbling. It became clear who the real writers are—our kids. The same kids who draw on walls and build blanket forts.
Every story is rooted in the imagination of children. We’re better storytellers because of it. We owe our success to those little, fearless leaders that brought us here - our kids.
It’s safe to say NAMEE’S personalized books are for kids, by kids.
We know that every family is different in its composition, ethnicity, traditions and favorite activities. That’s why we allow you and your kids to create custom characters, and include elements that reflect your real lives into every single story.
Your child will beam when they see themselves illustrated and hear their names read aloud as the main character! They’ll discover a world of emotions, letters and numbers in an unforgettable way. The lessons will stick because they’ll associate their identity with what they’re learning. It’s not magic, but it sure seems like it.
We’re so happy you’re here and that you value this part of parenthood as much as we do. NAMEE is a labor of love and we can’t wait to hear how your personalized books deepen family bonds.
If you or your kids have a great story idea, please send us a message. We’d love to hear it!
It may become our next personalized childrens’ book!
