At Best of Best Review, we celebrate trailblazers who redefine their industries with creativity, passion, and impact. This year, we are thrilled to honor The Morning Glories with the Best Publishing Innovation Award of 2025 for its groundbreaking approach to personalized children's books.

Founded by Nicole Mangum, an award-winning publisher and the visionary behind Liberation’s Publishing House, The Morning Glories is revolutionizing how parents and children experience storytelling. Unlike traditional "insert-your-child’s-name" books, The Morning Glories creates fully customized stories with handcrafted illustrations that resemble the child and their loved ones—turning their imagination into a beautifully bound reality.

Why The Morning Glories Stands Out

With so many publishing options available, The Morning Glories rises above the competition by offering truly personalized children's books that are as unique as each child’s imagination. Rather than generic templates, every book is a custom-crafted adventure, ensuring that no two stories are alike.

Here’s what makes The Morning Glories the gold standard in publishing innovation:

True Personalization: Each book features original storytelling and custom illustrations tailored to resemble the child and their family.
Entrepreneurial Empowerment: Encouraging families to create and publish their own stories, inspiring the next generation of young authors.
Inclusive & Diverse Representation: Ensuring that all children, regardless of background, see themselves in the stories they read.
Heartfelt Beginnings: The company was inspired by Nicole’s own book, A Cake for Mommy, a delightful tale based on her children’s hilarious baking adventure.
Backed by a Legacy: As part of Liberation’s Publishing House, The Morning Glories benefits from 11 years of experience helping over 200 authors bring their dreams to life.

A Game-Changer in the Publishing Industry

Nicole Mangum’s journey is nothing short of inspiring. As a Mississippi Trailblazer 2025 Inspire Award recipient, she has dedicated her career to making publishing more accessible, personal, and empowering. Through Liberation’s Publishing House, she has transformed countless aspiring authors into published storytellers. Now, with The Morning Glories, she’s ensuring that even the youngest voices are heard.

"Your child’s story, their way. Ready to create yours? Let’s bring their imagination to life!"

With innovation at its core, The Morning Glories is redefining what it means to publish with heart—and we at Best of Best Review are proud to recognize them as the Best Publishing Innovation of 2025.
