Wow... I can't believe it's been exactly one year since this thread started. Though we haven't found footage yet. We've come a long way from July 21st 2017. We started with one picture and people's memories. If we wanna find footage, our best hope is someone's VHS tapes. It's clear that online footage of this show is non-existant. There's currently a YouTuber who could potentially have footage.
You guys know of Henry Nguyen? He posts a lot of old children's shows, even from the 50s and 60s it seems. Anyway, he has footage of Treehouse which he often posts bumpers. He recorded footage from Treehouse in late 2005. Which we've understood is when My Special Book aired very often. We should try contacting him. And asking him if he has any footage of the show.

I do know that he reuploaded some of my bumpers/commercials videos. I had a tape from 2005 that was just Barbie movies that my friends gave me that I uploaded commercials from. Was it that?
I was going to ask if anyone knows Ally Jessa productions on youtube. Is that you canadianchildhood?
I'm not Ally Jessa, but we have become quite acquainted on YouTube. We talk about Treehouse a lot. He loves the show too. My YouTube (for this kind of stuff) is "PixarMan2001 Obscure Children's TV"
Our only hope is to get this into a nostalgia subreddit. The reddit community is amazing at finding things like these
I wouldn't call it our only hope although it's not a bad idea. The problem is that normally things in r/nostalgia already have images/video associated with them, but we're still trying to find it.

There is still that one image of MSB. I asked my peers and other people and that' the only thing that gets them to remember it. Because, as a kid, I didn't know the name of it. I just watched it.
Also, my aunt says my cousin remembers watching it, and that book girl would always say "Hi, I'm Book Girl". But it sounded like she was saying "BOK Girl", because of her perkiness. Anyone else remember that?
I remember more of what happened during the actual show then the dialogue sadly.
Same thing with me. It was visually appealing because of how bright it was and that's what stuck with us. It's like they say in filmmaking, "Show, Don't Tell".

Hey, guys. I have some potentially good news. My internet friend Steven Zanettos talked to one of his real-life friends, and the friend says she has "My Special Book" recordings on VHS. Now, until we find out if its actually true, I recommend we hold in our excitement. It's always possible that it's not true. If it is found though, a friend of Steven and I, Ally Jessa, is planning to get a capture card (he was gonna do that anyway) and he'll capture it. I bet he'll upload a camcorder version for the time being though. Just remember, though, this is possibly not true, so we'll just have to wait and see.

That sounds awesome! Can't wait to see this (I live in the US and hadn't heard of it until now!)

If this is true, please be sure that they capture the credits. We may be able to advance our effort a heck of a lot if we get an entire episode, since the credits may give us previously unknown information as to those involved in the production and distribution of the show.
