Childhood memories past and present, things you have learned, traditions you treasure, hopes, dreams and wonderings - capture them all forever in this unique shared memory book.
The Book of Me and You is designed to be filled out by children and a special grown-up in their lives. That could be a grandparent, godparent, guideparent, odd parent, aunt, uncle or someone else. It’s a chance to share the things that make both of you, you. It’s a chance to spend special time together and get to know each other on a whole new level. And it’s a chance to pass on wisdom, advice and funny stories.
Created to be filled out over time, and treasured forever, there are sections for you both to fill out individually and together. There’s room to draw or add photos. Prompts include earliest memory, the little things that make your day, recipes to pass on, and your philosophy for living a good life.
It's very well constructed and comes in a rainbow of colours to choose from, with a hardbound woven rayon cloth cover. There's a version for baby's first year too."

Families come in all shapes and sizes. And we think that’s great. So our books make no assumptions on family or relationships. The Book of Me and You can be shared by a child and any special adults - friend, relation, teacher, mentor, god-, guide- or odd-parent.
The Book of Me and You can be gifted by or to children of any age. We think the stories and prompts inside will mean most to children over 6. And of course they will be treasured well into adulthood as a memory of the people who love them and made their childhood special.
