What can I personalize?+
You can choose the child's age, story theme, subject, message, language, illustration style, and font. Add their favorite things, family members, pets, or a Pinch of Magic to make the finished book feel unmistakably theirs.
Is it difficult to create a book?+
Not at all. The guided builder takes you through one simple choice at a time, from the story theme to the details that make your child unique. You provide a few ideas; we turn them into the adventure.
How long does it take?+
Most digital books are finished in under 30 minutes. The story and the character artwork each take a few minutes to create; the rest depends on how quickly you review and approve them. Your draft is saved as you go, so you can step away and pick up where you left off.
Do I need to upload a photo?+
No. Photos are optional, but we highly recommend them if you want the illustrated characters to feel more recognizable and personal. You can upload up to 3 clear reference photos of your child, family members, pets, or other important details.
What is A Pinch of Magic?+
It is an optional extra detail that gives the story an even more personal spark. Tell us that your child loves lions, sings everywhere they go, or never sleeps without a favorite teddy, and we can weave it into their adventure.
Can I review the book before it is finished?+
Yes. You can review and edit the story, then approve the character artwork before the final illustrations are created. You stay in control while we do the creative heavy lifting.
Which languages and illustration styles can I choose?+
Books can currently be created in English, Spanish, French, German, or Dutch, with regional variants where available. You can also choose from a growing collection of illustration styles and child-friendly fonts to give the book the look and feel you want.
Can I create a book as a gift?+
Absolutely. A personalized book makes a thoughtful birthday, holiday, new-baby, or just-because gift. Add your own message, review the story and character, then choose the hardcover option after approval. Gift wrapping is not currently available.
Are the stories safe for kids?+
Stories are created with children in mind, using age-appropriate themes and reassuring storytelling. You choose the theme and message, then review the book's words and character artwork before the final version is created.
How are my photos and personal details used?+
We use the details and reference photos you provide only to personalize your child's stories and artwork. Photos are stored privately and are never displayed publicly or shared as example content without your permission.
