Send us a few everyday photos. We write a short adventure starring your kids (and you, and Grandpa), draw every page in classic line art, and send a book they read at bedtime and color the next morning.
One free page from your own photo, no card needed. Books from $29.
Every book is written for the family in it: their names, their faces, their hair, their grandparents, their dog. Here are three we made to show you.
Zuri, Miles and their parents build a backyard rocket, run low on fuel and bounce across the moon to fix it.
The museum wakes up after dark and Sofía crosses a wobbly rope bridge to bring a lost baby triceratops home.
Fog rolls in, Grandpa's lighthouse goes dark, and Leo is just small enough to reach the loose wire.
The Carters, the Reyes and the Parks are illustrative model families created for these samples. Your book is drawn from your photos.
Phone snaps are perfect. Faces clearly visible, everyone you want in the book. Tell us names and ages.
Choose a story (space, dinosaurs, the sea, a first day of school) or send your kid's own idea. Choose an art style.
Your printable PDF arrives within 3 business days. Printed paperbacks ship within about 10 days.
Print at home, as often as you like
The one grandparents ask for
Preschools, kindergartens, groups
Extra printed copies for grandparents: $15 each, shipped in the US. Prices in USD.
If the book is not right, tell us within 30 days and we refund every cent. You keep the book. We would rather you tell a friend about the time we got it wrong and made it right.
End-of-year gift, a library-day project, a PTA fundraiser or birthday party favors. Each child's family sends one photo; we write one class adventure and give every child their own page.
Two to four everyday photos where faces are clear and well lit. A group shot plus a close-up of each child is ideal. Hats, sunglasses and heavy filters make likeness harder.
Yes, and we would rather say so up front. We use AI illustration tools to draft each picture from your photos. Then a person checks every page for likeness, kindness and print quality, redraws anything that is off, writes and typesets the story, and builds the book. No page goes out unchecked.
That is the whole point, and the part we fuss over: face shape, hair texture and style, glasses, freckles, the gap in the smile. Features are drawn faithfully and respectfully, never as a caricature. If someone does not look right, we redraw them free.
They are used only to make your book. We never use your family in our marketing without written permission, we never sell or share them, and we delete them 30 days after delivery (sooner if you ask).
Yes. Families come in every shape. The Digital Storybook includes up to two extras; the Printed Keepsake has room for more. Just include them in the photos and tell us who is who.
The PDF arrives within 3 business days of receiving your photos. Printed books are printed on demand and usually arrive 7 to 12 days after that in the US.
Please let them. Send the idea in their own words, however wild. We have turned "Daddy fixes the door and then we eat snacks" into a 16-page epic.
Tell us within 30 days and we refund you in full, no questions asked, no need to send anything back.
Send one photo and a first name. We email back a coloring page starring your family, free, so you can see the likeness before you spend a cent.
