Yesterday we received our customized book. My 5-year-old child was delighted with his new book, and above all with his name on the title and him as the main character of the plot. In Spain it is complicated to find a bilingual book in two minorities languages, such as English and Portuguese. In this way, we could enjoy our language combo with an entertaining story. 100% recommended. Thank you for the great work!

Encontrar un libro bilingüe en dos lenguas minoritarias, como inglés y portugués, es complicado en España. De esta manera, pudimos disfrutar de nuestra combinación de idiomas con un cuento entretenido. 100 % recomendable. ¡Gracias por ese gran trabajo!

Gestern haben wir unser persönliches Buch bekommen. Mein 5-jähriges Kind war begeistert von seinem neuen Buch, und vor allem von seinem Name im Buchtitel und ihm als den Hauptkaracter des Plots.

Aus dieser Weise konnten wir unsere Sprachenkombination mit einer unterhaltsamen Geschichte genießen. 100% empfehlenswert. Danke für diese gute Arbeit!

Muchas gracias, por hacer llegar el libro a tiempo para el cumple de mi hija. Adora esta historia y es tan cute cuando describe las criaturas marinas, especialmente el pulpo con sombrero. Los estoy recomendando a todas las mamis bilingües.
Candace G –
The book looks amazing!!! And this company was one of the most attentive and accommodating stores I’ve encountered. Definitely going to order more of these books for myother nieces and nephews.
Kristen –
I was so excited to find these bilingual books, plus the quality of the book itself is fantastic. To top it off being able to personalize them was just amazing and a huge hit. Underwater Adventure is also a really adorable story that any kid would be hooked into.

Dear Friends of TimTimTom,
After a minor hiccup dealt beautifully by Gabriela from TimTimTom our UK-French-Russian family received the most fabulous books for the kids. We were so impressed with the customer service, the attention to details, the stories and, as we have native speakers in the family, the translations!
What a wonderful service this little company provide and a joyous moment when the children realise they are the every day heroes in the story. What truly wonderful moments we shared. THANK YOU.
Life in a multicultural environment is so enriching, thanks for making it even more so.
TimTimTom, you are the best! We were all blown away.
Thank you!

I´ve just received the book!
Guau!! It’s really, really, a cute present.
Thank you a lot!!

Our books have arrived! And we couldn’t be happier about them! They are beautiful, great text, narrative, illustrations. But, this is what I think. How about Alicia and Antônia? Antônia hasn’t seen hers yet and Alicia LOVED IT!!!!! I couldn’t
believe how much she liked it – she saw herself in the character, grabbed the book from my hands and went to her bedroom to admire it in private! I read her the story in Portuguese and she asked me to take the book with her for both schools:
her daycare (English) and her Portuguese class.

We ordered a personalized book as a baby gift for friends with Russian speaking family. They loved the gift and were so impressed with the story, language and illustrations. I found the order process so easy, and I got great customer service! They caught a typo in my dedication and followed up with me to correct it before they printed the book. I was impressed by their outreach and timely communication, too.
Deirdre Cahill –
I love these books. I ordered three over Christmas and now one for my son’s best friend’s bday. I just heard from the mother that she nearly nows the story by memory by now:)
Araceli –
Nos encanta y lo leemos todas las noches antes de ir a dormir. Lo mejor es encontrar todos los detalles en las ilustraciones. Qué lindo libro!
Monika –
Love, love, love this book. The illustrations are gorgeous and the story is simply so cute!
Magda –
My nephew was so happy when he opened the box with his personalised book. I had to read it right there and then on front of all his friends attending his bday party. I am sure a few other kids will be asking for their own Dolphin story. The cool auntie 🙂
Sam –
Anthony loves his dolphin book. I just also ordered the football story for his birthday in two weeks. He adores the part where the dolphin takes him underwater and he can’t stop giggling when the little fish produce the bubbles, his usual sound effect is something like “blrp, blrp, blrp” :).
Zaina Xavier –
Just wanted to let you know the book arrived in plenty of time for Portuguese Father’s Day. It looks great, I can’t wait for Olly to see it!
Thanks so much for your help,
Ringo H. –
Dieses Buch ist mehr als ein Buch für uns, es ist sprachliche “quality time” für uns. Die Idee ist genial, die Personalisierung macht es super leicht für die Kinder das Buch zu lieben und die Bilder sind großartig. Das Buch ist ausgezeichnet und ich werde auf jeden Fall nach euren neuen Geschichten schauen.
TimTimTom . –
Dear Ringo H. Vielen Dank für Dein Kommentar!! Here a quick translation: This book is more than a book it is linguistic “quality time” for us. The idea is awesome, the personalisation makes it super easy for the kids to love this book and the illustrations are amazing. The book is excellent and I will definitely look for your new stories.
Julien –
A truly special idea. Especially for our family where we speak 3 different languages. I like how easy it was to customise and order so quickly
Elsie –
Ordered this book after reading a review from The Weaving Ideas and it has not disappointed, the quality even better than expected and the illustrations are just gorgeous. Deserves leaving a 5 star review
Jessie –
This book is a winner for my kids, I ordered it for both of them with their own name and now they read it every night before going to bed. 100% recommend it!
Lisa Miller –
This book was a baby shower gift for my daughter last year – I thought it was amazing. Since then I regularly give this book for new borns or children birthdays, it never fails as a great gift!
Amirah –
What a great book! I am sure my son will treasure this book for the rest of his life – and this in mom’s language and dad’s, he was so excited about that when he saw that. Look forward to more stories for boys!
TimTimTom . –
Dear Amirah,
Thank you for your nice comment, always great to hear.
We are working hard on our next story, which will be about soccer – expected online after Spring!
Evelyn Thompson –
I ordered this book 2 weeks ago and it arrived much much earlier than expected. Excellent service. The book is also very high quality and the illustrations are just adorable. Thank you!!
Ekaterina A. –
Love it! It is since Christmas the favourite book of my son, he goes to sleep with it 😉
Look forward to another story for a boy, I will be your first customer!
Rebekah –
As an owner of an online shop myself, I l know how important it is to have customers reviews of your products. And this book definitely deserve a great one – the quality of the book is very high: hard cover, thick pages, vibrant colours. The story itself is also of a high standard, as a parent you do not mind reading it over and over again. Romain loved it as a Christmas present and this is a great birthday present that kids loves (and the parents, since it is also educational!)
Totally recommend this book!
Elaine –
This book is being read over and over again! A winner
Tamara –
We ordered the book in German and English and being a bilingual myself, I am impressed with the translations. Neither language feels like a translation, which is often a problem with bilingual books. I will order the ballet story for my niece for Christmas.
Monika –
We love the story and the illustrations are gorgeous!
Silvia –
We just received Chloe’s book. Not only did it arrive earlier than indicated on your website, but we are pleasantly surprised that it is hard cover and the quality of the pages. We bought a few other personalised books before and this one is definitely the nicest. Good job!
Mario Antonio –
My son does not enjoy reading in Spanish, until now! Waiting for the next book, please inform me us soon as it is out.
Anna –
Finally a book in Russian my son loves!
Tatiana –
“Mommy again please, this time in Deutsch, bitte” My four year old son after reading the book twice in English last night. If the value of a book is measured by the times we have read it so far, this book is definitely a winner!
Diana –
We chose Russian and Portuguese and where impressed that it does not feel like a translation. Bedtime reading has become more fun again…THANKS!!
Minerva –
Beautiful story, my son really enjoyed the story, I love the book it has a lot of vocabulary and for me it was the best part! congrats! great product and good quality. see my review in Spanish. https://goo.gl/AJ8Qmc
Oliver –
I need to let you know how much my son loves his book. He is not a keen reader, but he now reads his story with the dolphin several times each day, just great!
Will for sure keep coming back for the next books.
Xiaowen –
We love it! I will be ordering another 3 books for my nephew and nieces this Christmas
Ifeoma –
I read Alexander and Dolphin to my Alexander last night and Max kept repeating “Alexander” “Alexander,” it was so cute.
We loved the vibrant pictures, the cool storyline and the fact that the dialogue was easy to understand and animate, but not too elementary that he was bored with it. And we can learn Spanish together. I can’t wait till the next one comes out so I can get a language for Max.
On a sentimental note, I love how the mom tells Alexander to “Be brave” as he goes off to the big pool. Those are the exact words my own mother left me with when she dropped me at university for the first time, Be Brave. ?❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️?
Thank you for such a wonderful keepsake for my sons.
Alejandro –
Está genial! Hasta yo (el padre) estoy aprendiendo alemán, finalmente. Todos hemos leído la historia yo en español, mi mujer en alemán y los chicos no se cansan. Por favor, avísenme cuando salga el siguiente.
TimTimTom . –
Mil gracias por tu comentario, Alejandro. Las buenas nuevas: estamos lanzando un segundo libro en apenas unos días el lago de los cisnes, una bella historia de ballet. A penas tengamos el libro disponible te informarémos. Muchas gracias!
Carolina –
My son loves this book!!

Elaine –
Disappointed! I loved the idea, but I couldnt order bc thre no Portuguese language available. As soon as you have it as an option, I will get for my sons and niece!
timtimtom –
Hi Elaine, don’t despair:) The good news is, we have had so many requests for Portuguese that we are currently working on the Portuguese adaptation of the story. We will contact you as soon as we have it. Beijinhos
Hyomi Jie –
My 4year old boy just loves to read this book. He picks up the book and asks his big brother, Mandarin tutor, parents, etc to read the book for him saying “It’s in both English and Chinese. You can read me the story in any language you like!”. Brilliant book! Can’t wait to collect other books.
Kelly Hwang –
Will be a perfect b-day gift to kids. My kids really liked it alot!!
Sabine –
This book has been an excellent gift for my daughter… she is totally engaged in the pictures and forgets she is ‘practising’ her French….
Rebecca –
I am always looking for books that inspire the kids in my life to love reading and to want to read under the covers with a torch. This book is it!
