This book is the best way to keep track of your collection. With extemely handy spaces to track values of Beanies seen, date purchased, amount spent, and Beanie information (including adorable pictures!), "The Book" is not to be missed. I have personally chosen this as my sole mehtod of tracking all 132 Beanies in my collection!

The loose-leaf binder system is great for arranging the Beanie cards any way you like. It's a great tool for kids, as well as adults.

Kids and ring-binder books seem to be a perfect match. My 13-year-old daughter has this book and it is her absolute favorite out of all the "beanie" books. She loves updating the pages with information as she adds new beanies to her collection. As far as finding the supplements, I found all of them right here at amazon.com and gave her the complete collection for Christmas. She was thrilled! Thanks to the authors for their fabulous idea of a book that is never out-dated.

I bought "The Book" so I could keep track of what I have, the cost of each item, along with all the other info. Need supplements for new beanies! Was going to buy Teenie Beanies supplement, but why bother if I cannot get the others also.

Have all of the pages through 1998. Need the New Pages for all of the new Beanies. Was a great Book for keeping perfect track of the Collection, but very frustrating now not being able to follow through.

I have looked at many beanie baby books, but they all are outdated every few months and I have to buy another one and transfer all the information from one book to another. That is just a hassle I don't have time for. With "The Book," I can updat easily and I can organize the cards any way I want. It's great!

My daughter bought this book to keep track of her Beanie purchases. No supplements have come out with the latest releases. I have e-mailed the company. Their reply is that they are being sued by Ty for publishing the book. Therefore, there would be no more supplements. A good thing has gone bad.

I recently read this book, and may I say that it was a big help when I purchased my Beanies. A must have for serious collectors, this book tells you everything that you need to know about serious Beanie collecting. If you are a serious Beanie collector, and you want to know exactly what kind of Beanies you have and their value, this is the book for you. I recommend it.

This book has the tush tag and Swing Tag information plus! When new Ty Beanies are released I just have to wait and buy the new pages to add to my book. I can use just the pictures of the Beanies I have. Arranged in any order I like. The pictures are large with all the information on the back, so you can keep an accuate history of your collection. This book is a must for any beanie collector!

I am very excited about this book and the advantages it offers of keeping up with my personal collection. I appreciate being able to divide the pages in a way conducive to my needs. The only suggestion I would make is that the background colors leave a lot to be desired on some of the pages. The beanie itself blends away into the background. I can hardly wait to receive my May 1998 update. Keep up the good work!

This book is an extremely interesting to look at. It has the name of the beanie baby, the retired date (if any), the birthdate, & much more. Overall I think only serious collectors should buy this book. :)
