From one photo to a hardcover

How it works

  1. Pick a world and a style

    Mermaids, dinosaurs, space, pirates — or describe your own idea — and choose how it is illustrated.

  2. Add your child

    Their name, age and a photo, plus family members or pets if you like. Everyone is drawn from their photo.

  3. Choose a story and read it all, free

    Pick one of several story ideas. The whole story is written, and you see the characters and a sketch of every page before you pay.

  4. Pay only if you love it

    Then the book is yours: the digital story right away, and a printed hardcover delivered to your door.

Your child, the hero
