I got a book for my newborn is a do it your self! tell you the truth there are similar programs less expensive and they fix the pictures wich picaboo does not do. they cut my pet name it only show part of it do not look profesional they told me it did not fit and offer 50% to order another, that is not retribuation since they already offer 50% to print on line so it does not fix error? it would have been better if they offer to reprint and me pay for shiping since is there mistake! they are profesionals and did not see the print error!
