International Version
Spanish Version
This edition of the Sticker Book was also released in Italy. It was identical to the version distributed in the UK and Ireland with the difference being it was written in Spanish.
French Version
The Sticker Book was released France. This version was identical to the UK and Ireland version. The only difference was that it was released in 1999.
American Version
It looks like that the Sticker Book was also released America. This version was identical to the UK and Ireland version. The difference was that it was released in 1999 and featured Kevin from Backstreet Boys on the cover.
​
The change in cover was probably because Backstreet Boys were very big in America and this would appeal to the public more than Boyzone.
