I’ve been overwhelmed by the variety of stories that our photo book creators have added to the Shutterfly Gallery. The vast majority reflect real life experiences, but a couple have been fictional stories written in most cases for children to enjoy.

These ‘story books’ are often inspired by a child’s favorite book or stuffed animal. KellieG4’s “ There were 10 in the bed and Kristen said…” stars her two daughters and their favorite stuffed companions. I also loved Greg_Z’s “ Piggy Steps Out 2nd Edition” which has elaborately staged scenes of his daughter’s favorite stuffed animal.

Finally, NancyH33’s “ Curious George Adventures with Ty” is the story of a school mascot’s stay with her family and the adventures they went on together.

What a labor of love by the creators, and what a treasured gift for the children who have received them.
