A Thoroughly Modern Baby Book
Using the Internet, create a baby book that is only about your child, your adoption, and your families. Log onto babEbook^TM with your personal username and password, and over the course of one, two, or three years, create a book of treasured memories and family history - a book that will be published exclusively for your child.

For generations, baby books have been a problem for adoptive families. There are many beautiful books out there, but we always end up crossing something out, changing the wording, or adding pages because there's no place for everything we want to include.

babEbook^TM allows families to create a book from scratch. The starting layout includes sample chapter and sub-chapter headings as a guideline, but everything can be changed, new headings added, and blank pages included for items that will be added after publication, like hospital name bracelets and photos. Create chapters for birth families, foster families, country information for international adoptions, and/or any topic that helps describe your family experience.

Comments, photos, letters, and messages from others can also be included. (Yes, you can even include sound files!) A "sharing" capability offers several options for others to contribute and view the book in progress. If your adoption is open, you can include birth family emails, recorded messages, family history, or other information that fits into the format you've created. Friends and family who live far away can add welcome messages. The design is so flexible, families can create a book that has exactly the content they want.

The online interface is easy to use, with clear directions, and help available at every step. A running preview shows how many pages have been created, and the content. And when it's ready to publish, multiple copies can be ordered.

Whether you choose a three year package or create one volume for each year, babEbook^TM is a terrific new choice for adoptive families. Check out the tour on the publisher's site to see how it's done.
