We bought "This is Me"...the selling point was supposed to be that it is "asking questions" as a child would..but really I don't like it all that much. It is soo...boring....nothing decorative, no colors, no pictures (except for the first page on Russia). I don't know what I was expecting, but it just seems there are things I want to say and they don't fit. It has a lot of pages but many won't work b/c they are about foster info, birth family history (we have none) etc. There is a page for every birthday up to 18, but I don't think I would do that every year (not that I would want to...but ya know..). I don't know,it just not really fit what I was looking for. The cover was nice, while and silver or gold like a baby book, but inside the pages were just plain old paper with a question and lines. I did get more pages, but they are just blank pieces of lined papaer. They do have some places to put pictures in the back.

I may look for another one that fits my tastes better..but maybe this style is for you!
