How it works
About five minutes for you. A few minutes for the pictures. Then you decide.
1
Tell us about your child
First name, age, pronouns, and a few things they love. Choose how they look from illustrated options, from hair and skin tone to glasses and mobility aids. Add up to two siblings and a pet.
2
Pick a story and preview it
We suggest three stories that fit. Choose one, pay the $5 preview fee, and every page is illustrated. Flip through the whole book on your phone.
3
Fix anything, then order
Spot a typo or a detail in a picture? Leave a note on the page and we make it again. When it's right, approve it and we print and ship the hardcover.
Inside a book
Every page is painted in the same warm style, with your child looking like your child on every spread.
Made from your choices, not your photos
You never upload a picture of your child. You pick their look from illustrated options, and we draw a character sheet that keeps them the same from the cover to the last page.
- Skin tone, hair, eyes, glasses, and mobility aids
- Their name and pronouns, spelled the way you type them
- Siblings appear in a few special moments
- The family dog, cat, rabbit, bird, or fish
12 stories to choose from
Gentle, everyday adventures for ages 2 to 8. We suggest the three that best fit your child's interests.
Butterfly Morning
The child counts butterflies without touching the wings, then starts a pot of flowers for another day.
The Color Walk
The child goes down the block and back, saving red, yellow, blue, and green on a piece of paper.
The Dinosaur Picnic
The child builds a pillow dinosaur named Noodle and hosts a picnic where the leaves are pretend and the sandwiches are real.
Library Saturday
The child takes a question about daytime stars to the library and brings the answer home in a book.
The Pancake Plan
The child starts a pancake breakfast. The first cake folds over, and the next ones stack up golden on a blue plate.
