Make their book
From one photo to a whole book
Most personalised books just swap in a name. We go further: your child becomes the character, so the hero of the story really looks like them.
1. Their photoOne clear photo of their face, taken on your phone.
2. Their characterWe turn them into a 3D-animated-style character. Then the photo is deleted.
3. Their bookThey're on the cover and every page of a 32-page story written just for them.Example: Amelia is a made-up girl. Your book stars your child.
A story with a message
Tell us their name, age and what they dream of being: a vet, a footballer, an astronaut, anything at all. We write a brand-new story where they get there through hard work, practice and never giving up. Never magic or luck.

Questions
What photo works best?
A clear, well-lit photo of your child's face, looking at the camera, with no hat or sunglasses. A phone photo is fine.
Does it cost extra to use a photo?
No. Digital illustrations from their photo are included in every book: eBook, paperback or hardback.
What happens to the photo?
It's only used to make your child's character. Once the character is made, the photo is deleted.
Can I make a book without a photo?
Yes. Choose their skin tone, hair, hairstyle, glasses and freckles instead, and we'll make their character from that.
Can I check it before it's printed?
Yes. You read every page and check every picture first, can ask for one free rewrite, and nothing is printed until you press Print it.
