Children get chance to rename character in popular book!

Itsyourstory are famous for their photo-personalised books for children. To celebrate World Book Day on 1^st March, they are giving children the chance to rename one of their best-loved characters. The winning child will see their own name in print alongside the author's on the cover of the book… Julia Donaldson eat your heart out!

The Snowman Adventure book is popular in the run up to Christmas and this year Charlie the Snowman will be renamed by you. Simply send Itsyourstory your chosen name and some interesting facts about your snowman such as his favourite food, best friend, hobbies etc.

The best name will be used in the story and as a thank you the winner will receive five photo-personalised books from the extensive Itsyourstory range. But most exciting of all - the winner will be credited as co-author of the Snowman Adventure book for one year. That's right, you'll be a published author! Just imagine your friends' faces when you take the book to "show and tell" at school.

The competition opens on World Book Day - a worldwide celebration of books that aims to fuel children's interest in reading.
