The Custom Board Book of Names & Faces is a personalized photo board book that pairs one large photo per page with the name of the person, pet, or place in it. It is Pinhole Press's best-selling children's photo book, printed and bound in the USA on thick, wipeable board pages for children 6 months and up.
Babies learn faces long before they learn words. The Custom Board Book of Names & Faces takes advantage of that head start: each spread holds a single, large, uncluttered photograph and a single word underneath it — Mama, Dada, Nana, Bailey, Home. There is nothing else on the page to compete for attention, which is exactly why infants stay with it.
Because you build the book from your own camera roll, the vocabulary is the vocabulary your child actually needs. A family spread across three states, a beloved daycare teacher, a grandparent your baby only sees on video calls, the dog who sleeps under the crib — all of them become familiar, named, and repeatable long before your child can say the words back to you.
Every copy is printed on ultra-thick glossy board with a spiral plastic binding that lets a one-year-old turn pages without help and without tearing them. Spills wipe away. Corners are rounded. It is built to be dropped, wiped clean, and carried around by the strap of a diaper bag for years, not just read once at bedtime.

Speech-language research consistently favors high-contrast, low-clutter pages for pre-verbal children. A single subject with a single label removes the guesswork about what the word refers to.
Children repeat what matters to them. A stock illustration of a generic grandmother is forgettable; a photograph of their grandmother is not, which is why familiar faces reliably pull more page-turns.
The rigid board and spiral binding mean a baby can hold and turn the book alone. Independent handling is what turns a book from something read to them into something they read.

Most families lead with faces — parents, grandparents, siblings, pets — then add a few high-meaning objects such as the family car, the crib, or a favorite stuffed animal to round out first vocabulary.
Use the name your child will actually say, not the formal one: Nana rather than Grandmother, Bo rather than Beauregard. You can change the text size and color while you personalize.

Recommended for children 6 months and up. The rigid board pages, rounded corners, and non-toxic inks are designed to survive teething, tossing, and daily story time with infants and toddlers.
