About Create-A-Book® SA – in SA since 1989
The good news is that this is the very same company. We have been in SA since 1989, and pride ourselves in the fact that, despite other personalized companies coming and going, we have been trading non-stop all these years. We have dealers that have been with us so long their children have taken over the business from them!

About the books
Create-A-Book® have designed a method of assembly that makes these books look like they’ve just been purchased from a book store. The hard covers are wipe-able and protect the book from damage.
We currently hold 25 titles, but this number changes as we bring in new titles.
Yes, but we are working on introducing Afrikaans books as well.
The cover and pictures in the book are in full colour, and the text in black. But remember, the pictures are pre-printed, so you don’t need a colour printer.
About buying a book
Because EVERY story book is unique, each book requires an order form to be filled out. This information is then captured by your Dealer into the software that magically weaves the children’s details into the story. Each book that is produced is one of a kind and can never be the same as any other book, because the details of the child, friends, and places differ every time. So to order a book, either contact your Dealer directly and fill out the order form, or contact us and we will put you in touch with a Dealer near you. That way transport costs are minimized, and you will get the book a lot quicker.
See above.
Usually one day is sufficient, but Dealers prefer 2 – 3 days to get the book to you. But check with your Dealer.
About Distributors in the area
Create-A-Book® has a national Dealer network, and we have Dealers in most cities in SA. Where a situation arises that there isn’t a Dealer near you, we will find the closest one to you.

Chances are you will. We haven’t discontinued too many of our books. However, if our USA office discontinues any titles we have no choice but to discontinue them here as well.
About price
Our Dealers set their own prices, but are given guideline prices by us. Please liaise directly with your Dealer for prices.
