Personalised Book Survey

Personalised Books

Many thanks for agreeing to take this survey!

We are creating a new picture book for 3 - 7 year olds that can be ordered online. You will be able to create a likeness of your child (called an avatar) which will appear, along with your child's name, throughout the book.

You will also be able to choose 5 story sections (from a list of 20), each one about a certain topic your child loves. They can be an astronaut, princess, train driver, pop star, deep sea diver - all sorts! This makes the whole book personalised to your child and the things they enjoy.

None of these questions are required but the more you answer, the better ;)

1. Do any of your children own a personalised book?

2. Did you or your partner buy it, or was it a gift?

3. How old is your child?

If you have more than one child, please complete this survey based on one of your children. Feel free to complete other surveys for each child!

4. Do you use picture books to encourage your child to read? For example, pointing at words and helping your child to sound them out.

5. Do you think your child would like to read a story in which they are the star?

6. Here are some examples of avatars created for 6 children.

Using the grid below, tell us how similar you think the illustrations are for each child.

Space Cell	Not very similar	Somewhat similar	Quite similar	A good likeness
Tom	Tom: Not very similar	Tom: Somewhat similar	Tom: Quite similar	Tom: A good likeness

23. We're very early in the development of this exciting new book and any help you might be able to give later on down the line would be hugely appreciated. Would you be happy to answer a few more questions in the future?

24. Thanks! What is your email address? We will never email you about anything other than future surveys and won't share your information with anyone else. This question requires a valid email address.
