When the Boy Falls Asleep (book excerpt)
There once lived a cheerful and curious boy named Oliver. He loved to play, build, explore, and learn new things.
Every evening, his mother would say, "It’s bedtime, Oliver!" But he would frown and answer, "No, I don't want to! I haven't finished playing yet!"
"Why does everyone say that sleep is magical? It’s just boring time when nothing happens!" he grumbled.
Oliver would run around the room, build towers of blocks, and read books until late at night. And in the morning, he would wake up tired and a little bit sad.
One evening, when Oliver again didn't want to go to bed, a soft, warm light appeared in the corner of his room. The light began to thicken and turned into a small fluffy creature with large, shining eyes.
The creature smiled and said, "Hi, Oliver! My name is Marshmallow, and I’ve come to show you how wonderful the world of dreams is!"
Oliver was very surprised and excited. He almost felt like being scared, but Marshmallow looked so small, soft, and warm that the fear faded away on its own.
Marshmallow climbed onto the bed and warned him, "But only if you go to sleep will you be able to get there."

Absolutely incredible! The stories are lovely, the printing is top quality, and the illustrations are stunning. My son is obsessed — he wants it read to him multiple times a day, and honestly I never get tired of reading it either. There's something magical about a book where the hero is your own child. We pore over every page together — it genuinely feels like a collector's edition. I've been showing it to everyone and already planning to order more. Best gift idea for kids, by far.

Absolutely incredible from start to finish — the concept, the customization options, the whole process. The book itself is fantastic: such a sweet, engaging story with gorgeous bright illustrations. I also have to mention the customer support — genuinely one of the best I've experienced. My daughter was absolutely delighted on her birthday. I've already ordered another one for my son, and I'm seriously thinking of making one for grandma with her childhood photo!
