Put Me in the Story is a unique series of “choose your adventure”-type books imagining the reader as a character in a story. Through a series of questions, the reader gets to decide who he or she is and what he or she will do within that fictional universe. To make the experience (and the book) unquestionably your own, you get to personalize the book with a name on the cover, a picture, and a “message of guidance.”
