Questions

How is the book personalised?

You tell us your child's first name, age, big dream, who reads with them at home, and any pet. You also choose how they look in the pictures: skin tone, hair colour, hairstyle, glasses and freckles. We then write a brand-new 32-page story just for them.

What age is it for?

It's for children aged 2 to 10. The words are written for your child's age, from short read-aloud sentences for toddlers to longer stories older children can read themselves.

How much is it?

The eBook is £6.99 and arrives in minutes. The eBook with a printed 21×28cm paperback is £19.99, or £24.99 with a hardback, with UK delivery included.

Can I check it before it's printed?

Yes. With a paperback or hardback, you read every page first, can ask for one free rewrite, and nothing is printed until you press Approve.
